This is my 2nd painting of my bird's nest with the roses. This painting business must have driven Monet and Van Gogh absolutely nutsy!! Anyway, I may give this one away since I haven't been able to sell anything on ebay yet. I wonder if I cut off my left ear would it help to become famous. Or maybe I should wear a silly little hat while painting. Of course, I'd look a bit silly since I'm indoors! Any suggestions??? I think I like this one better than the last one though. Next one coming up is chicks and roses! Hah, I'll bet you just can't wait, right?!?!?! Riiiiight?!?!?!?
I think you are doing better than you think you're doing! lol Are you taking any kind of class? Are you self taught? I struggled with painting the One Stroke method for years until I went to a class. My instructor was very good-(read, patient and long suffering!)Other than that, read many paint books. My instructor has shelves and shelves filled to bursting with books including books on perspective. I have found many helpful art books at my local library. Art is like writing. To be a good author you must read. To be a good painter, you must study other people's work. Keep going. You're doing great!
