                        @ Zooreka
                        Your portrait looks great for a first oil attempt.

                        This is some local scenery I am working on, still a WIP.

                            Great start Zooreka.

                            I like the harmony on your painting Tedrex.

                                                As mentioned… Keith got scrapped (Went to Toronto I guess!….)

                                                So you can imagine the dark grey mud that I was left with after giving it a good stub with some medium… I caught an image by Kevin Hill on Youtube of a Tuscan Landscape and decided to give it a go from Dark to light working backwards and employ a more traditional approach than the Bob Ross heave-ho!… This is how far it has got. I was having trouble with my medium but now think it’s sorted…. I want this to settle down and dry off a bit so I can apply a few glazes and tighten up a few areas, then just add the final details,,, Am tempted to “Fix” the flow but I think the glazes will probably get me where I want to go with it….

                                                Oh… treaded myself to a new easel yesterday… at last!

                                                ehh mm.. The Add image thing is NOT working here.. tried to add an image… everything greyed out Jpeg, png and bmp…

                                                    Some beautiful work appearing here guys! But is it me or is it a little quiet this month?
                                                    Anyhow, finished my latest this evening, barring some minor tweaks:

                                                    Only took six months :)
