Hello fellow artists...New to this forum, but I can already see what an awesome place this is in the web universe! I am a painter from the pacific northwest, mostly work in oils, ink and charcoal, but also like digital meduim, and, if it's a mural, definitely prefer acrylic over oils...:eek!:

Here's something: American Mastodon...
Medium: acrylic on panel, 9' x 16'
;)

Apart from the fact that you paint very well, I really like the way your paintings make me want to explore, they're inviting and induce a reverie in me. Looking forward to seeing more and glad to have you on board.
 
Feck me, the underwater scene is simply outrageously stunning! I love the American Mastadon (nomenclature aside ;) ), but this second piece is just WOW!
Very pleased to meet you and your work - don't be shy in showing us more.
I wait in anticipation . . . . .
 
Sorry - I've just had your painting into Photoshop for a more detailed look around - mindblowing! I'm an illustrator (generally) and therefore don't really 'go' for illustration work, but yours is something else - take a bow.
 
Thank you, guys - Aries, Nick, Tim, Dave...3:)

Dave - no one's ever asked to be on my fan list, so I didn't have one before, but now I do! ;), thank you!8-P

Nick - amazing, amazing website gallery! I see you travel with your sketchbook quite a bit - lovely paintings...

Aries, you're from the Phillipines, what is your favorite bird specie in the Phillipines?

Tim, LOL! Thank you so much for your compliments. It means a lot coming from a fine painter such as yourself. I really like your paintings.

You guys are very prolific!
 
Leonnessa- just found you. WOW! Your work is really great and adds to the rich mix of subjects and styles on the forum. Will definately keep up with this thread:t:

Just noticed this myself, superb work. My hat is off to the underwater scene, wonderfully creative and masterfully painted, look forward to seeing more....
 
I haven't been on much over the last few days so I've missed this up to now. I would have commented sooner if I had seen it though! Excellent work Leonessa, obvoiusly a great deal of imaginative creative thinking goes into your pics, cant wait to see more. And welcome to the wildlife art sub forum at BF we're generally a pretty active and friendly bunch so join on in!
