Zeus in watercolours.

My paining of Zeus quite simply didn't work out as I intended to try a completely new style!
When I use watercolours I basically paint 'ever' hair but I intended to try copy the style below.

Obviously I failed :) I ended up painting layers of wet on dry
as each new area painted meant that he previous areas were the wrong colour
I then went over the lot with one of those brushed for painting hairs or grasses.
I'm not happy with my colours so tomorrow I might just apply another layer.

Superb Wildlife Painting by Shahin Ebrahimi 

"Big Five" refers to 5 African animals: lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo.

Ballerina in acrylics

This painting had more than my usual range of 'mistakes' 

and that explains why she is pale in this photograph and not Wedgwood blue.

Even so, she is rather graceful.

Ballerinas in oil, acrylic ink and pastel

Oil painting of a ballet dancer in a lovely graceful pose

I seem to favor the impressionistic painting methods using painter's knife. 

May be that is the reason I seem to like Andre Kohn's paintings. 

This painting is from a picture of a lovely ballet dancer 

that I used to paint in an impressionistic style that Andre uses.
Something about ballet dancers, they seem to float in the air! It is a pleasure to watch them dance.
