Let the fur fly!

Tell me what you think! Be honest I have thick skin. I can not afford formal training so I resolved the fact that I will make many errors before I create a master piece. So to all you art masters let the fur fly!!!!!![/img]

One of the 1st mistakes I made years ago was to think I did not need or could afford schooling. We all need it. Find ways to afford things that are of the upmost importance. I,ll take a longer look at the painting and post an opinon.

I like this painting. I see ghostly faces. maybe a little monster or two. A few things going on. The colors are good and the work is trying to tell a story. Maybe a sad story.

That is amazing to me that you got that. I painted this about 5 years ago during a very difficult time in my life. Like I said that's really cool!
Thanks for you advise about training. Do you have any suggestions in the pursuit of training? I have checked out the community college courses but not sure about them. I do go to an artist guild when time permits for an open sketch session. Any suggestions would be great.

What I like about this painting is that it has a real three dimensional feel for me, almost as if I'm looking at a sculpted surface. The white, especially, feels like it floats to the surface with the intense red on the bottom right appearing to sink into the background. The palette is haphazard, at least it seems so to me.
