started back painting , after about 14 years, I give it up because i started carving , I did paint birds that i carved , but nothing on board or canvas, I'm using acrylic paints on mount board, I'm enjoying it much more now than before, probably because i've got more time ,hope you like ,will post more when finished...

Excellent work Mark. I'm particularly taken by your approach to the out of focus areas in the background. That broad-brushed highlighting and sketchy waterscape is extremely convincing and the contrast between it and the high-focus mandarin is beautifully done.
Looking forward to more - soon.
 
WOW! Your colours are dazzlingly bright, and the texture is intriguing. Very glad you started painting again, looking forward to seeing some more. And please show us some of your carvings too!
 
Lovely stuff Mark, water is so hard to paint well and you've pulled it off brilliantly. Like the others I'll look forward to more, and carvings too.

Welcome to the art forum Mark. Love the Mandarin it is really striking, and the way you've handled the water is excellent.

Look forward to seeing more!
 
Your work is amazing....I especially love the carvings. I love to collect wood carvings and recently purchased a humming bird and a lizard, but not a patch on your work though.
