My latest Hobby
I have started painting. I have never been to art class, or had any lessons. In fact I never did art at school. But last year someone gave my husband some paints and canvas as he is a little "arty"
He has never used them, so in November (2009) I decided I would give it a go. I will go to night school next year to learn properly but I do find it very relaxing. any tips from real artist would be appreciated :) I know the backgrounds are not the best, I have just been trying different things.
The Top painting is of Ch Tasdale Sam I am - first attempt at Airbrushed background. The Border was my first ( hardest too!) based on one of my sister Gail's Borders from a number of years ago. the corgi is my older sisters dog Pengavin Private Ryan, the Boxer is our 'Joe' - Ch Boxton Groovy Baby - with his indignant look he can give, the other Australian Terrier is 'Baxter' - NZ & Aust Ch Tasdale Last Gift. And my latest is one I made up of a Bull Terrier knocking over wine glasses. - I auctioned this with the proceeds going to the Canterbury Bull Terrier Club.
