Two Finished

Eyeball 20" x 16" Oil

Fishing 14" x 14" Oil

I keep doing it...and I hate it! I see nothing remotely artistic in copying a photograph. I can see the creativity in setting up a photo with a view to painting, but this, it's not what I want to do. It's only virtue is the practise in actually painting, and I now have lots of paintings of my beautiful son!
What do you think?

Sharon, there's nothing photographic about these two beauties. I love all the soft edges and the implied movement. The little fishermen are amazing.

Hi Sharon, love all these paintings you have been busy. Considering you are working from photos I think they are really full of movement and energy. And you have some lovely paintings of your son!
