Daugter of Nature and Christmas in July Sale



This is another version of the "Me and Nature" design with some colors added. I am thinking of painting this one tomorrow. I am looking forward to see how it goes with the painting. If you paint well, the paints will add more texture and richness of the colors in it.

The VAST in Esty has a Christmas in July Sale going on. I also have some items for sale that are at 20% off. Please do visit it.

Sunflower


I manage to finish the painting early today. I may still modify here and there a bit when I examine it in the next couple of days.

Sunflower (Work in Progress)



I have painted the same sunflower in watercolor before. I painted two, one large and one small.

I thought I may try to paint it in a canvas to see how it goes. I haven't paint in a loose way for a long time and am so excited to do it in this painting.

Today I managed only to finish the first layer of Acrylics.

Me and Nature 2



Come back to the digital art again. This is a simple design of second Me and Nature. The background is created from a rusty boat image.

One of my friends showed me many of his beautiful PS created art. I admire his way of creating background texture. He collects those texture whenever seeing anything interesting such as rain drops in window and a ruined wall. I think I also should carry my camera all the time.

I am wondering what will look like when I paint it.

Me and Nature - Sophisticated and Loving



This is the final of the piece. I modified a bit of the girl's hand to be more energetic. I also modified the color of her cloth to turn down a bit.

Me and Nature


I continued work on the painting. I found the hand gesture of the girl is not so warm and changed it to the current one.

I need to put it aside for a while and look at it next time to see if I need to change anything. When you worked intensively on it, you tend to loose a correct judgment on the painting. You have to look at something else for a while to find problem with the painting.
The artist I like very much Shirley Trevena said that if your eye always drawn to a part of a painting, the part must have something wrong. You need to do something with it. I think it is very right.

Me and Nature + My New Site


I got to settle down to paint the Girl and Flower Design. This is the first time I painted on a big canvas of 18 x 23.5 since last time that it was several months ago. Somehow the colors of the photo are not the same as the actual painting. The actual one looks more pleasant.

It is difficult to sell painting of big size. I was trying very hard to sell my painting before and now I feel that I should try harder to get my skill up and paint more.

I also tidied up my another web site . I like to assemble all the good ones that I have produced so far to assess them and try to gauge what I should do next. It is a good exercise for me.

I used the round object this time for the same design from yesterday's one. It looks interesting. I like the effect that the lines and round objects give.
