Finished the ramp surfaces and most of the grass.

The large head, and the added flowers does a good job of bringing the subject down to a little one.
Love the colour composition.

Looks promising.

Thank you Singular.

Without having a direct reference, I am finding the shadowing of the curved ramps challenging. So far, I am happy with how its going. The amphitheater is also slowly coming together.

Started working on the smaller bits for a change.

COOL.

Quite striking. The facial expression is as frank as the painting itself. Well done.

Adding mid-tones.


Top surface of skate park is concrete made from fine blue-metal and yellow-tan cement. Decided to use pointillism for simulating the concrete and depth of field.

Love it.
I think this style of artwork is your forte. I can see that you really love it too. Brilliant!

I've been away for a long time. Other life commitments got in the way. On my recent return, I've noticed a drastic drop of forum activity. How come?

Painted the spirit scooter rider with Titanium white, and slightly thinned with turps to help it dry quicker. I laid the canvas flat on its back to sprinkle pastel coloured glitter onto the paint.

Thank you vananh01 for your supporting comment. Will continue to discuss the topic, and feel free to join in.

A friend has recently opened a shop for scooter riders. I am doing a large painting for the shop. The idea is to depict the spirit of a pro scooter rider. Here are some photos of setting up the canvas, a few rough sketches for layout and lettering for business name. http://i.imgur.com/hqfTWmX.jpg Cr...

Thank you Carl and Pooch for your support. To continue, my last catch-up post.

Hello Carl, sorry if you got misled by my posts. I do not work that fast at all but only here, there, and whenever I can. In my first post I mentioned ... ...the following posts will show what I have done so far. The dioramas are half finished.... So I am only posting stages of development in piecem...

To continue. Building the bridge towers. It does not look like it but over 11 metres of 6 mm square timber was used. http://i1150.photobucket.com/albums/o618/photomaniac7/WARDELL%20BRIDGE/33_BMU_Bridge%20Piers-1.jpg Doweling all the joints. http://i1150.photobucket.com/albums/o618/photomaniac7/WARDE...
