Description lol...I hope I didn't say japanese bird in the title xDD...anyway, this is my first oil painting...I finished in today and it took AGES... one whole term TT_TT. But anyway, it is sorta boring, but I hope you like it. I did it 'cause I wanted to a) draw cherry blossums and b) use oil paint. It was really fun...and really boring too. Yeah. I can actually claim this one an my own because it's not a copied artwork or image. I created it myself!! YAY!!
lol...my camera made it look cruddy =.= meh, i'll change the file later...it doesn't look anything like the xD

I love oils! The only paint that dries slow enough for my slowness at using it.
And it's great how you can jsut htink a scene like this. Whenever I do realism I ALWAYS need a photo of some sort. TwT

They dry too slow for me! XD Haha. I'm too used to acryllics. And I need to practise making colours with oil...a lot

I-I used a photo reference . Drawing realism without a photo isn't too bad, it's just painting that's hard and thinking of where shadows go...I think? XD

Thanks!! : D

lol we're just the opposite then. XD
I think the slow-drying of oil paints allows me to be slow at painting. XD

Yeah, shadows are always hard.

HMMMM. XD
I-I don't know. I get so impatient! XD
Oil paints are really good for portraits though. I can't do them fast at all so the colours don't blend properly and it makes me EMO INSIDE!!!!

Damn, that's one awesome picture. Beats the "sets" we had to paint for our "opera". No, I'm not singing in that.

Now my pictures look like those of a small child's. Who has no arms.
