* *Figure labels are placed at the top of the corresponding artwork. To comment on a specific piece, start the comment with the figure label as so “Figure: 1.” Here are some of my latest projects. It's basically just mix of everything I've done over the last couple of months.  Figure 1 Figure 1 could be a lake or a river, however you picture it. It has lighter tones and colors. It's probably one of my favorite paintings.   Figure 2 Figure two was a loose painting with obvious dark tones.  Figure 3 Figure three is an English horse, not any particular breed. I drew it to emphasize some of the discomfort that comes with harsh hands and painful bits when riding horses.  Figure 4 Figure four is a Friesian smelling a rose. I wanted to contrast the dark and mysterious look to Friesians and the gentle reds in a rose. I couldn't get the Friesian as dark as I wanted it, but it's still a very interesting piece.  Figure 5 Figure ...

To comment on a specific piece, start the comment with the figure label as so “Figure:1.” Figure 1  I wanted to display some extra color that wouldn’t normally be in a typical sunset. I did it just to display some surrealist techniques. Let me know what you think!  Figure 2 This was actually supposed to be a waterfall! I started and realized that I didn’t have the technique, the right paint, or the patience to do a waterfall. I painted the whole painting black and did a night sky with mountains. It looks really orange but the painting it’s pretty black.  Figure 3  This was my second ever acrylic landscape. I consider it the piece that really sparked my love for painting landscapes. I love painting myself wherever I want to go.  Figure 4  I had just gotten a palette knife and decided to try mountains for the first time. Like a beginner, I painted the mountains, th...
