Haven’t done an oil painting since... 2011? 2012? Something like that. Might go back to it. Got most of the painting supplies in the basement. Some stuff I made

This one below was made in April 2009 during my senior year of high school, so a few months before Occupy Wall Street happened.

An early one

The first one I made

So you have a bit of talent there, young man. Oils are hard (well, I find them so). How do you like acrylics?

Your skill level is definitely over 9000!

Thanks. Always greatly preferred oils... yes it’s harder and takes forever to dry but it is infinitely more flexible, easier to mix colors, and looks better. And is way more toxic.

All pluses.

My moms favorite medium is water colors. I could never really get that into them.

Too fussy. Those require a lot of patience

Neat. Thanks for sharing

I especially dig the money heads and the alien cleavage.

Both my mother and my current SO are oil painters, they always seem to like painting on suspended canvases without the chassis. Have you ever tried that?
