New Hobby.

Category: A little of this and a little of that. | Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2014 2:21 pm

I have always loved to draw and paint. One of my favorite painters to watch is Bob Ross on our public TV channel. He died in 1999 but they still run his shows. I am so glad they do.
I have gotten so inspired by his oil painting technique called; Wet on wet. That I got some paints and canvas and dvds of his teachings you how to do wet on wet oil.
Here are my first three paintings I have done so far.
One thing I forgot is how messy I am. So I often get as much paint on the canvas as on me. He,he,he. But I am enjoying experimenting with this fun painting technique.

Wow, they are so great Tooty! You have the talent for sure :) Would love to see a painting in various stages of completion some time!

Thanks Mart. His technique is really fun and I get to add my own artistic flare. Do you have pic of your art posted anywhere?
