Hi

My name is kyle and I will host my paintings here.
This is my first time working with oils. I dont have pics of all my paintings yet becuase my camera is distraught, but here is one to share for now. let me know what you think, -any critique is great! thanks, enjoy

you're seriously talented, man. that looks like something that belongs in an art museum. you should try to distribute these or something.

Dude! thank you thank you!! thats such an amazing thing to hear! this is actually only my second oil painting ive ever done hehe... i went through the talented art programs growing up but i never gave much of two shits... i liked art, but not the process of doing it. so this is the first time ive done anything of this size and concept. i spent about 24 hours on it altogether, with only an angle brush but im happy with it, and glad to hear the positive response, the work is paid off

and im definitely going to pursue a showing, i figure in another two or three months ill have a pretty solid body of work...
i feel much happier and content with my life now that im creating, and i hope to share more with you all as i go along!

I'll go along with Theis, you really have the talent for this.
I believe some more time and you will be able to make money from your art

thanks bro!! I do feel really inspired the more i paint, i can feel everything becoming more fluid, along with life around me... im going to register for classes at the academy of fine arts here in new orleans, so i can learn more about anatomical proportion and technique with painting and drawing... as i see it i can always get "better", -its endless really and im up for the challenge! thanks again for the good words, it means the world...

here is a pic my first oil!

this makes me remember my own wish to finally move my sketches to canvas. if only I had money for the canvas lul..

you reminded to update my own art thread with some of my new stuff..
check in somewhat 30 minutes if interested

rock_n_frost · Jun 22, 2009, 04:16 PM

your last post is awesome...
i like it so much, keep doing shitz like that..

my advise is use more paint

wither-I · Jun 22, 2009, 09:02 PM

thanks man!! yeah i mean theyre pretty big canvases so i use alot of paint already, but im gonna lay it on heavier as i go, getting more dimension too, and researching my perspectives and detail more... these are ust some ideas ive been working out in my head recently so i put them down for my first paintings... Im almost done my new one, and i think its th best yet.. ill upload a pic late tomorrow or the next day. thanks again!
