Description
I did this Oil Painiting as my final in art this last year....and, well, it was my first ever attempt at oil painting. Umm...lots of people said they liked it, but as always with my projects, I can't stand looking at them when I'm done with them. I posted this 'cause I promised some people that I would.Anyway, I wanted to do something that would look like it came out of Nausicaa....so I chose a windmill. Then, I decided to put cute little Hinata in there to direct your attention to her, because the bottom would be a bare grassy area otherwise. I know the painting is kind of 'Blah'...
The digital camera might've detracted from it a bit..there are some white spots on it that the camera put there, but I guess they look like reflections in the water. There aren't any really vibrant areas and this painting isn't much to look at, but I hope someone likes it. ^_^

But I already said I'm never happy with my art! I'm physically incapable of liking my own art! I never know if it's good without other people's opinions.

Heehee. Thanks alot! I hope to use oils alot in the future, I never really worked much with color. I was always using charcoal and pen and ink, so my projects were always B+W (I'll post some of them...)

Looks great. I like the trees reflecting in the water, and the windmill looks really cool as well. Hinata looks good as well.

Aww, it looks great! i'm glad you decided to post it. Really nice job on the windmill, it really gives a lot of depth to the painting and nice job on the water, reflections are sometimes weird to do but you pulled it off nicely. hinata is so cute.
