Beautiful. The way you are going you will have enough for an exhibition. Looks like you have found a good way to earn some extra dollars.

This is really beautiful,

                                 Its something I would love to have a go at.  I have been told I have a keen eye for different objects and some of my many Photographs show different things I see. I see beauty in nearly every things at dome angle or another.  Did you find it hard just to start somewhere? or did you follow any books, just keen to start doing it and also do you do oil and on what type of surface... Im so pleased you found something you like.. Regards  Ellice.  (( Happy Painting ))

Hi Ellice.
I am following Jerry Yarnell's instruction books with a bit of my own modification for better of worse. I started using oils on canvas but as they take weeks to dry it was going to be a bit hard living full time on the road with wet paintings every where, so i have changed to acrylics on canvas. My fav are the oils, but acrylic just works better for me at the moment. They are all done on canvas.

Just get some paint, canvas and have a go. You never know.
