My first two projects, were done with a separate theme from the rest. The first project was one of my summer projects. This project was just an experimentation with ideas. I didn’t really have an idea of where to go with it. Then my next three projects were guided by the idea of duality. That idea was too big, and I wasn’t creating pieces that I really like doing. So I switched my investigation to doing landscapes of places that I have a special meaning to me. |
When I look at my first oil painting from last year, and my first oil painting of this year (not included) I have seen so much improvement in myself. Now I look at my latest piece and my skill has really developed. I have been experimenting with using a lot of texture with my paintings. Using pallet knives to spread it on and get the texture I’m looking for. Or dabbing the paint on with a brush.
