| One of the pictures I have been using as a reference/inspiration |
I thought just a quick note on my newest project would be in order since I posted nothing about it before starting as I usually do. I decided to paint a lion, and to be honest I don't know why. So now, I have a 24x36" canvas with most of a lion painted on it.
I can't exactly decide what I want to do for the rest of the canvas.. solid background? a little more artsy and creative? another jungle cat? (that'd be a challenge).... but I'm going to just try to get through the lion first. This alone is a challene because I'm actually oil painting! I never thought I'd try it again. Definitely a good idea to practice with it more; I think it's been beneficial. Is it my new favorite medium? Absolutely not, but I'm glad I gave it a try. It's been fun. One thing I have noticed: I really like working BIG! I expect to finish at least the lion in the next week.
