So I guess I wasn't quite done

After I posted the last entry on the blog I realized that I didn't feel the painting was complete. I worked a bit on it the past couple nights and I am finally, officially done. I like the idea of line art on top of the painting and I think I will dive into this idea further in the future. A couple new pictures with it hanging up...

Sorry it had to be from the side. Due to the varnish I put on it, the glare is strong.

All Moved In and back to Painting a Little

We are all moved into our new home in Windsor(the reason for the long break in new paintings). We are loving it and my commute it much shorter. I started this newer painting(which is very large) back late last year and never really knew where it was going. After layer and layer I have found a finishing point I am happy with. This painting is mixed media(really just acrylic on canvas and watercolor paper). Finished size is 4feet by 3 feet. It resembles a storm off in the distance. for some reason I have always been attracted by weather and I think its beginning to take root in my paintings too.
