Well, what can I say about this blog, it is harder than you think but I will keep on trying to update this blog daily.
Anyway my art lessons are going good I have just moved on to the oils, and to be honest the blending on oils is great, downside is that the drying time is a bit longer than acrylics (by about a year).
I produced a nice little postcard size painting of an oak tree (see image) which I then enclosed in a nice little IKEA picture frame that I painted to look like antique wood.
Apart from this I am not really producing any work that I think of sufficient standard to enclose in this blog, however I am still on track to getting some paintings produced within the next couple of weeks that I think will be of sufficient quality, also I am working on a cartooning project which I will enclose in this blog as well.
Anyway enough of me today will update you tomorrow with my progress.
Yours
Sir Arty
PS
As you may know I moved to Canada originally, but I'm now based in the United States, so what you do you think happens when Canada plays the USA in the Winter Olympics at hockey, the answer is of course that the neighbours being typical patriotic lemmings start to lecture me on how USA is No 1 in everything (Yeah corruption, being Fat, crazy banking and winner of who started the credit crunch are all the things that come to mind). Of course us British are not used to this level of patriotism and frankly I find it so irritating that some days it takes all my efforts to bite my tongue .
Anyway we had a decent snowstorm that morning and being British I decided to build a mooning snowman waving the Canadian flag.
How delighted was I when when Canada won the hockey. Here is my picture of the snowman and the retaliation by the neighbours who being Yanks decided to build a better snowman and floodlit it all night's for the next four days (Ha HA Ha Electricity is not cheap , nor have the USA started to think climate change is real).
