Oil Paintings and 2014


I've been slow to get started on things since the beginning of the New Year, I started a new blog (that's four) "Smudges and Lines" which will detail my work on comics from drawing, sketching, characters and page design. I'm happy to have begun it, it's time that I improved my drawing and using comic books is the way I'm going to do it. I'll get a link up soon but there isn't much to look at right now.
The two photos above are two large (large for me) 30x40 inch oils that I started awhile back and then left, I just wanted to get used to moving the oil around and chose two photos of trees that I took on a trip back from Ottawa, it's early days for these two pieces but I think creating six large oil paintings will be a big part of my years. I have no idea where these paintings are going, which is a little dangerous when working with oil but I look forward to the challenge of figuring out how to work on a large scale.
