as boring as realism sounds, working it out in paint is a great place to start for getting technique down. here's a tip. if you have creative block, then dont be creative. work on techniques and theory. when the ideas come, you will be better prepared to ececute them and sometimes just playing in paint can spark an idea.

^^^^word. That's pretty much what I've been doing for the past month. Sketching, studing, and playing with paint & colors. I have been going to more gallery shows where I live in Bmore/Wash D.C./Md. I get lots of good ideas, but sometimes it's hard to stay original. It's real hard to focus when you have a 9 to 5er and a family. Oh well.

Peace. Lynerocks...WHO Kids.

"The Raven" was the theme by edgar alan poe. this is what i came up with. looking for crits. this is my first time working with paints.

 

 

Good color tones I soppose.

 

But there is not much too it. Just a bunch of drips and a quick bird looking thingy.

 

The drips might make a good first "layer" to then work ontop of and eventually try to bring some of that back into the final piece with some overpainting.. but as is now there is not much to it...

Okay so last night after i did the canvas i was feeling it really but i took a second to look objecitvely at it, and it was easy. there wasnt all that much thought put into it. im going to be doing more work soon, hopefully tommorow. its difficult but fun, this being my first canvas i decided its okay, but nothing all that special. moving on...
