Oil Paint!

So I'm back. Back to school, and back to work. Which is always so...troublesome. Couple that with almost-crippling tiredness and a bug that won't go away and you get a sad artist. As a note, my internet has been odd since I'm technically on the 'temporary' internet here at school. I have to get things all straightened out to get back onto the network properly. Until then, expect things to be spotty at best.

Good news is that I'm in an oil painting class now. Look I have proof! (excuse crappy pics, I only have a camera phone at the moment)

My first attempt. We had to paint a simple form using only two colors and white. I had my DS. Yup. >.>;

This is technically the third oil painting project: A landscape painted Ein Plein Air. Yea the color balance is crap. Apparently camera phone + direct sunlight = bad. I'll take a better photo once the colors are more dried and I fix the issue in the right center area.

And this lovely thing is my current project. A griselle still-life, glazed over with color. This is only the first glaze of many, and hopefully by the end I'll have a more impressive piece. I'm still unsure of the display angle though. I paint it tilted like the first image, though am considering displaying it like in the second image. As a side note, all of those items are what float around in my bag on a normal basis. XD I'm an odd duck.
