Blog Fail

"Seaside Tryptich" 3 12"x24" Canvases
So there it is, finished. It's not my favorite painting ever, but it was a good exercise and I do think it came out pretty well. I like how the waves ended up looking ribbon-ish.
And meanwhile, I've started a new art journal. This time I've vowed to make a doodle a day. I think that will keep me in art shape better than my previously vague "something art related" a day. Also, I'm making it look pretty:

"Donald with Margarita" 11"x18" Watercolor

"Wise Owl's Mean Look" Acrylic on Wood Block 6.5"x9"
A quick little painting I did in class.
