its too early for halloween!


i actually started this painting last week and just never got to finish it due to the fact i had a surprise visit from my nephews who came up from Florida on there spring break.it was awesome getting to hang out with them. i really miss those kids and i shouldn't call them kids they
re grown men in there twenty's but i watched them grow up and even changed there diapers, so to me they'll always be kids.anyways no excuses i got it done, i think its OK but the composition is boring .the next painting i do i think i need to give it a little more action and i think i should have made the Micheal Myers face bigger so it was more in the background but whats done is done and ill take that lesson with me to the next one.maybe ill put a silhouette of Micheal in the upper left corner to give it a little more interest hmmm ill think about that one.the reality is that ill probalby just put it away and call it a day, next....
for me painting is more about learning from your mistakes and trying different things each time to add to my arsenal of skills thats why ive pointed out my mistakes because i know they exist especially with this subject matter of pin up.for me i learn more from doing rather then someone telling. so these paintings are a great way to excersize my brain and work out the bugs.and right now i feel like im tap dancing !lol and for those of you who never had roaches growing up ,tapping is what you do when you turn the lights on in the middle of the night in the bathroom.and ya it is too early for halloween.
