Acrylic on Water Color Paper

One day I’ll post really cool paintings of dragons and wizards and space ships and aliens, and, um… and stuff. For now, I have decided to post a few images from my sketch pads. The above still-life of grapes was one of my first attempts to use acrylic paint, and at the time I just did it as an exercise to get used to acrylic as a medium.  Lately it’s really been growing on me. I’m not sure why, because it is very primitive as far as paintings go. Perhaps thats the reason.  

Every once in a while, instead of posting a traditional blog entry, I post one of the sketches or paintings I have done. You can check out those entries you can click on “my Art” and you’ll have a whole selection of sketches and paintings that will melt your face off (because that’s what we all want in our art viewing experience)!

Anyway, back to the artwork itself.  The portraits are from my pen/pencil sketchpad. The building below and the grapes above are from my acrylic sketch pad (I got all kinds of sketch pads. I also maintain a couple other sketch pads, including a day planner/sketch pad. It seems I read too many books about Leonardo da Vinci when I was a kid).
