Anyway now I've had my guess ,, I would like to say a big welcome and thank you for taking part in this thread Immi ,,
BTW mate believe you me I aint no master ( even at putting bait on hooks :) )
I am just a lorry driver who happens to enjoy ( trying ) to paint + draw I have had no training and have just taught myself by experimenting and getting books from the local library .
Hopefully the more people like yourself come forward it will either encourage others to either have a go or post up some material they already have .
Once again thanks for taking part :england:

Sorry i aint got a scooby doo about the rest
Still no winners on the first two. Don't want to get too far off course on the thread so... The first is a warped Al Pacino and the second, Walter Kronkite.

In real life you cannot but admire the sheer enthusiasm of amatuer painters ,and
Water colour artists do seem to hate black.
The video repeats something I was reading about,
how you might mix in a bit of the colour that is opposite in the colour wheel
eg a green objects shadow could have a purple tinge to it to set it off , rather han just been boring grey or black
black
black
That bloody video I think was based on me Rob :)
Anyway Bluey , there you go again , you see you have an interest and also a basic understanding of how opposites attract on the colour wheel ,, so cmon ! get that bloody painting gear undone and strike up !
I hope were not gonna have to put you down as one of them ( curious ) painters :)
Ok well onwards and upwards as we move into the festive season in the UK in comes the bloody cold , so a little watercolour to get us underway to remind all you lucky lads in the warm how cold it gets here .

Been trying out some new pastels and some new paper this afternoon ,, very strange its kinda coated in velvet , not sure I like it yet , but will keep soldering on , trying to learn .

It must be said you've got some talent Nige. The winter scenes are top class.
Some absolutely great creations there Nigel.
Do you sell your prints and if you do I might purchase some to put them up around my house.
Lets talk.
Thanks kindly CM and LT for your kind remarks .
LT if you would like anything just PM me mate your details to mail to you and I will send off to you with my pleasure. There is no charge mate for this at all ,, if it gives a little pleasure to you then its good for me ok ?
Right I've been busy here are some paintings in mixed media: oil, watercolour, Crayon, or was it acrylic ? that I knocked up over the last few days !
ok ....
I didn't actually do them myself , my paints are still cellophane wrapped waiting for my inertia to end ,
a program I downloaded 'painted' then ;
but I was the DJ on the myriad adjustment knobs and sliders ,
and it was definitely me who pressed START.
99% of its output is garbage so it's helping me learn what works and what does not , for when I begin myself,
and I do remember reading digtal art would be welcomed on this thread :spin:
ok lets kick off with fruit and veg painting
yes, an idea pioneered by Giueppe Acrimboldo in the 16'th century ,
forget normal brush strokes, he painted stuff from the greengrocer blended to look like a portrait.
For a template I used a Mogigilani painting i like -

thats brilliant Nig. are you sure you really are a truck driver not a ballet dancer in disguise?
Thanks PP for your appreciation mate ,, keep looking in I am allways churning one out .
However I am deffo a truck driver mate , have been for over 38 years now ,, spent 20 years of it with this mob ,, we was Tolemans , then Axial then Silcock + Collins then Ansa now Ford motor company do they're own transport direct , not through contractors .
Happy days !

Good effort Bluey ,,, now start with .....NEW under file then strike off on your own ,, if you wanna have a bang at digital imagary try a free prog Gimp 2.8 for Windows or Mac ,, its one hell of a free prog
Cmon Bluey your beginning to look like a bit of a closet Rembrandt to me :mid:
I'll get you painting yet :tieme:
Sunny keeps threatening to put another of his sunsets up ,,,,,, Cmon get em up !
