Vicky's Desert Island

Oil painting gives such a great texture and effect... its just bloody messy and takes forever to dry... but sooo pretty! Yet another gift for a passing of time and a first attempt at oils!!  

Andrea's Capturing the Castle

Anyone seeing a theme here? Dragons, sorceresses... surrealism... as I have been told... Aquarians do NOT live in the world of rational normalcy... but in a world of their own. I think I would like this world, unless, of course, I got eaten by said dragon capturing said castle. That would be unpleasant.  

Andrea's Sailing the Seven Seas

This one was done for Andrea ... probably also in 2008... or 2009 (I went through a phase of giving paintings as presents.) Anyone see a pirate ship on the horizon there? Captain Blood perhaps? Or Black Beard?

Yo ho ho and a bottle of RUM!

Sorceress

Creating .... life? death? something sparkly!!! Who knows what sorceresses create...

Literature coming to life

Let's hope it is a friendly one ;)

Slipping into Oblivion

I think I did this one in 2008... fun times with my mother, aunt and some other mature women... first attempt at painting since high school... so totally think that I was a bit ambitious... but not a bad attempt.

Christine's Pouring Sunshine

I only seem to do art when I am giving it away ... this painting was done for Christine... so most probably done in November or December 2009... though I do tend be a bit delayed in the gift-giving department.

Though surrealism isn't my favourite genre I think I am slowly getting into it.

Elven Warrior

Well here is one of my attempts at artistic expression ... as it turns out... people are not my forte... but I suppose practice makes perfect ;)
