anybody an artist?

I can paint/draw - damn stinky we seem to have a lot in common, and I didn't know you had posted on my thread (grow log).
So here's a special thank you to you.

There's a pic I painted when I introduced myself if anyone wants a look.

Love all Hall x x x

I actually prefer oils over other media. I love the smell of oil paint. Sometimes I like to just open up my paint box, it's an old wood one, and breathe...

But oils are a major pain in my ass to clean up after and I turned what had been my sunny art space into a grow room.

Now I'm stuck with watercolors and pen-and-ink.

Maybe I should take some pics of my work when I get home and put up a little electronic portfolio!

Miss Stinky,

Oils are the most forgiving medium IMO (and one of the oldest.) - I like to be delicate, however I have tried oils and it's not a pretty sight!
I love watercolours and pen and ink rocks - I bet you are awesome!!!
However just for you....

He He - oils or growing huh? They both are messy though!

Love always - Hall x

I used to draw a little. Here are a few incomplete old drawings that took me a long time to get to that stage but lost interest before finishing. I prefer to work with pencil, charcoal and soft pastles. I had a go using a difuser but were too pleased with my efforts.. (middle image id of part of a brass wind instrument)

Hall- nice.

SpiritLevel- I like that last one a lot.
And I noticed in one of your other posts you referred to the Lab? Are you a lab rat of some sort? What kind of lab?

Now that I've had a sober look at this thread, there is lots of tallent knocking around. I just adore some of the work I see.

Many thanks stinkyattic. That last one is diffused (a lot of blowing mannn), it's of a very old car (cropped front end) but I figure you might have guessed that already..

The Lab? errrr, I can't remember the context. It was either the grow room, dark room, bedroom, bathroom, under the stair case or in the park... can't think where else I do experiments... Maybe I mean't Lav(atory).. I made too many posts to back track...

First is a totally incomplete view through some Roman ruins it should have taken around 6 weeks to gain form, i spent around 2 weeks on it... far too much detail, turned into a massive challenge!! , I found something better to do, I think it involved weed and sheets and fire.
