A bit more work on my current painting...


So I haven't used my oil paints in a long time. It's a true shame because some of them are completely ruined and old, while others I, and even Carlos, couldn't open because the lids were sealed shut on them, that's how old they are. Nonetheless I got them out and just started painting. Not sure I like the results so far, but they just felt really good. I had forgotten how much more I like working with oils than I do with acrylics. Time to go to the art store and buy some new paints, and...oh yeah...I forgot to mention that I was out of turpentine. I resorted to getting as much oil paint off my brush and my hands with...extra virgin olive oil. Don't think it worked to well, luckily, I always buy cheap brushes.
