The top one reminds me of something Van Gogh might have done, nice!

nobodyschildThose look great! I am, of course, quite partial to the Bluebird one. Your work with fonts is really fantastic! I've always had difficulty with making graphics like that. I agree with BSJ, those would make really nice greeting cards. 88keysYour paintings look great! I struggle with landscapes and backgrounds myself, but it looks like you have a knack for them! I agree that the top one is very Van Gogh-esque.

I've finally finished my series of seasonal bird paintings. You've already seen winter in my avatar, but I thought it might be nice to share the set. All of them are acrylic on 4"x4" canvas. Costa's Hummingbird in Spring White-eye in Summer Pine Grosbeak in Autumn Eastern Bluebird in Winter All four together:

I agree, you have so much detail in such a small area - my favourite is the summer one with its interesting angle. Bravo!

Incredible artwork from everyone! I’m also loving the detail in your tiny paintings, BIuebird —I’m quite the detail-oriented artist myself. I have a sculpture trio that I’ll have to remember to photograph the next time I’m home, which I think you’ll enjoy

Horacewimp Aww, thanks Horace. unomusetteThank you! I must admit, that one was rather challenging to pull off. I think I re-sketched it about 5 times before I was satisfied. GrroosssThanks! Yeah, the detail is why I take so darn long to finish one, and it doesn't help that I'm a perfectionist. Ooo, I will look forward to seeing your sculptures!

Wow! Those paintings are stunning. I love the bird in autumn, the colors are so pretty, and there is so much detail. Wish I had more artistic aptitude—I’ll see a clear picture of what I’m aiming for in my head but putting it on paper looks nothing alike. Though maybe if I actually worked at it I would be decent...lol. I think I’ll stick to the performing arts.

Nice one, nobodyschild and Grroosss . *Thinks of a way of getting a sis fight started* Who made most of it?
