Description This is my first portrait painting at my art school. It took me about 2 weeks and was done with acrylics on illustration board. I had so much fun doing it! I loooove painting people, oh my goodness. I have already begun my next one, hopefully it will turn out even better. The man in this painting is Bob. He was the gardener of the art school that I go to.. well, back when the school was in england. Anyway, in this painting he looks like a private investigater, about to get the "dirt" on someone. He might have to "stalk" somebody, and "soil" their name in the plant world. It is all in a days work fern the plant detective. Iris I didn't say that last pun.

OMG! This is phenomenal! You may have been a student when you did this, but the Β mastery of painting demonstrated here is rare. I'm just blown away this is so good. Outstanding job!

It's a painting very good. Siento no comunicarme en inglΓ©s porque no me puedo expresar bien en tu idioma. Es un trabajo ejemplar, con fuerza, impresionante. Me encanta. Es estupendo.

Muchas Gracias! Mi esposa puede hablar un poco espanol. Ella puede traducir. Me gusta que tu encantas. (Lo siento si la gramatica es mal.) Gracias otro vez!!

I'm going to answer in English. I known that my grammar isn't good also. Thank you for answer in Spanish. Only a word: me gusta que tu encantas, serΓ­a "me gusta que te guste", o bien, "me encanta que te guste". Lo siento si "la" gramΓ‘tica es "mala". Gracias otra vez.
Only if your woman like to known as writing the feminine words. Although sometimes is more easy to look the most easy, like: me gusta que te guste.

I thought I recognized this! Did/do you go to that one small art school up northwest of Austin, the name of which evades me? I visited that particular school once; I'm thinking about possibly going there some day. It is an amazing place.

It is an amazing place. I do go there. I will be graduating this year in fact. The name of it is Gemini. If art is what you want to do, then it is the place to learn how to do it.

what is colors did you use 4 his skin ?

really awesome

bobtheraccoon In reply to shadowsgame [2007-08-01 21:45:22 +0000 UTC]

Lots. A huge mixture of greens, purples, blues, reds, oranges, browns. The key to skin is, don't use black (I never paint with black on anything), black makes it muddy. And don't rely on brown to make shadows, that will just make the person look tanner and tanner. Use cooler colors in shadows and warmer colors in the highlights, and just expeirement and practice.
