Tämä on kyllä kaikin puolin mukava. Erikoismaininnan ansaitsee erityisesti nuo kukat, lintu ja letku. Ja kukat. Ja kukat.

this is quite unusual. i love the expression on the crow's face. he seems very moved
well done on the arrow thingy on the red tulip. the speckles are quite effective.

what do you do to your paintings by the way?? do you put them in a folder, hang them on the wall, give them away...??

CaptainBeyond In reply to janie-jones [2006-04-22 13:09:44 +0000 UTC]

Most are in folders. I sold one painting though I really haven't tried to sell any of them. Sometimes I give my paintings as birthdaypresents etc Hmm, I haven't hanged any painting yet... Really, I'm not that sure what to do with them

The textures in your art are always so neat. I like the fire coming from the crow's tail—it took me a moment to notice it, but now I do. ^.^
Hmn, may I ask a question? How long does it take usually for you to create one piece of artwork? That is, how many separate layers do you have to do, and does Gouache take that long to dry?
I am going to begin some paintings for a project I am making, and I plan to use some goache paints I have. I suppose I will just experiment a bit. =}

Well, good work always!

CaptainBeyond In reply to Ziali [2006-04-12 15:30:05 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm, it takes maybe from 3 to 6 hours to do a gouache painting(A4 or sometimes A3 size) I don't plan my paintings too much forehead so the amount of layers vary. This has maybe four layers. Gouache dries quite quickly, and I think it's very easy paint in other ways too. At least this Talens named gouache that I use.
Experimenting with gouache is great entertainment!

Ziali In reply to CaptainBeyond [2006-04-14 01:09:57 +0000 UTC]

Oh yes, I have found that it is very entertaining so far! ^.^ And it is a rather easy paint... I like being able to mix it with water, too.
Thanks for your help!

CaptainBeyond In reply to Ziali [2006-04-15 11:38:45 +0000 UTC]

No problem. And yeah, you can use it like watercolor if you want or thicker so its more like acrylic

You're great. I love your works. This one is specially good.
The string on a crow-s beak is a nice touch

Loistavat noi tulppaanit tuossa, jotenkin kukat vaan on aina hienoja ja sopii töihin hyvin, tähänkin ihan ylihyvin. Pääsiäismäinen. Sulla on kyllä niin omaperäinen tää tyyli, tunnistaisin missä vaan. Ja tosi tyylikästä tekstuuria taustan kanssa, ja herttainen tuo lintu kans, kuvaat hyvin noita ilmeitä ja tunteita.

Pitihän sitä pääsiäisen kunniaks siihen liittyvä kyhätä..
Tunteiden kuvaaminen on kyllä metkaa puuhaa, siihen ei voi kyllästyä Ja juu, kukissa, naivistisissa, on joku outo viehätysvoima ja niihin voi sitten vielä toki halutessaan liittää mitä moninaisempia ja kryptisempiä merkityksiä
