Description My very first painting done with acrylics! Given to my mum as a prezzie~ love ya!

Wow XD Not easy to use, ppl... Haha... Very glad for all the 'practice' i've done in photoshop so far... Kinda gives me more confidence now... I'm much less afraid of traditional medias than before ^___^ So... FEAR MEEEEE ACRYLICS!

Okay. I know I'm not that good at it yet (darn i just used it once! haha). XD There's much to learn nya... think one of the hard things about acrylics is sometimes the colors just come out so dull... i gotta find a way to mix them so they dont become dull.... there's much more that i cant really explain... but will keep trying anyway ^__________^ Geh~

The scan made the pic a bit brighter and the clouds are a big mess of... something XD
Done in 2 hours.

inspired by

Aka - Nishi He
Aka - Castle of Sand

Thots r always welcomed!

I'm so desperately in love with that picture!!!
I can't even express is properly!

(I had a dog like that for 18 years, she died 2 years ago. but the spirit of that picture reminds me off all great times we had together I hope I don't sound too crazy )

I think this is a wonderful first attempt with acrylics. I love the soft feeling you got with it, almost like watercolors. The girls pose if great. I can really sense the breezy summer atmosphere you've painted.

^__^ yes it does look like watercolor doesn't it? XD A friend of mine said i'd get a different effect if i didn't use the acrylic on drawing block... if i use a canvas it'll b different~ I haven't tried that yet though... but i hope to in the future~ Thank you so much for the thots~! really appreciate it

Wow.. wonderful piece! The cloud is wonderful in this one.. I am still struggling with clouds, but I love the layout and the composition.. The coloring is magnificent as well.. I've never done acrylics myself.. I mean, outside of Painter that is *sheepish grin* ..

Awesome!!! I actually bought a Wacom tablet becuase I got so frustrated over the limitations of acrylics...... but then again, it doesn't subsistute for those moments when your making a mess and getting all worked up on the canvas..... Ah!!!!! The anarchy of making art! Sigh!

Have you considered taking on a life painting to work on your Painting skills in a different enviorment?

That looks great,you're very good with acrylics. I really like the simplicity of the drawing, that and the way it just has this peaceful aura about it, you captured the feeling of a breezy summer/spring day extremely well.
