Kinkcan - you are way too modest! You've contributed some great stuff to this thread! I especially liked the paintings you did of the Beatles and your sisters house. I bought acrylics today, they are my favourite medium. I buy all my paints from a discount store (just £1.99 for a set!) but they are really good quality! And the canvas I got cost just £1.00. I have at least two ideas taking shape in my mind, now I just have to bring them to life!

I can't wait to see what you'll come up with Sleepy. As I've said in another thread a few days ago, I've done a whole day of painting yesterday and here's the result. I called that one Street Musicians. Attachments:

Thanks so much Uncle! Kinkcan, that is an outstanding piece of art! How did you come up with this? The colours you've incorporated into the skin tone of the two people are really very nice, and I love the way you've painted the two individual hair styles. It looks like you put a lot of hard work into this - I love it!

Thank you Uncleson, Sleepy and Holly.
As Sleepy mentionned, I had to put a lot of work into that one. Me and my friend started painting at about one o'clock in the afternoon and we stopped at 10:30 in the evening. We both did a painting of the same subject , as we always do.
The toughest part is that we had to drink two bottles of wine along the way and this doesn't make things easier. ;D

I like that you say that you had to drink those bottles of wine Kinkcan - sounds like an excuse to get a bit drunk to me! ;D I wish we could see your friends painting too! This reminds me that I really need to work on my latest painting but it's looking like this week is gonna end up being quite busy

I hope you find some time to work on your latest painting soon Sleepwalker.

Thanks Kinkcan! Just wanted to make sure that you weren't becoming a slave to the Old Demon Alcohol! ;D

And here was me thinking I could encourage you and join in Kinkcan! ;D Although I doubt my alcohol induced state would produce a piece of art as wonderful as yours - it would probably end up looking like something a three year old had painted!!

I think I'll just stick to the coffee and OJ while I paint - it's probably safer!! ;D

I finally finished my painting. I can't believe how many hours I've had to put into this, considering how simple the design is. The inspiration behind it is old skool sailor tattoos. I added glitter and little gems to the painting but I don't think they show up too well in the photo (which isn't as good as it would've been if my friend had taken it!) Sorry about the big picture, can't figure out how to resize it
