the idea for the first piece just... sort of hit me while on the road in BC over the summer. it think the details of it apply moreso to my current situation than they did 4 months ago.
and the second... well, its just a really obvious hommage to a band i adore.
i took the picture from one album, which i've always loved, and put it with the colour of another. honestly, i thought it just looked better.
these two are pretty out of my typical "style"... which is basically why i made them. the last thing i want to do is get stuck in a rut over the way i paint.
i finshed a third about a month and 1/2 ago. the trouble is my dear whom i painted it for has yet to see it.
it's... discouraging, but what can you do?
perhaps im a bit crazy, but since he's a fellow tfp member im reluctant to post a picture in case finds this thread.
i painted it for him, and i want him to see it in person... not on the internet. it's just one of my things.
a bit of a predicament... but perhaps ill be pleasently surprised, and ill be able to post the picture soon!
anyways, any comments?
