Dead oil

Nate — Tue, 26 May 2009 04:50:24 +0000

I have used acrylic paint as far back as I can remember. For some reason I just never used oils. Until today of course. Last night I got a wild hair and stayed up until 4:30am drawing a new painting.

I set up my desk, poored my paints and a few hours later I made this. I know it’s nothing special as far as paintings go, but now that I’ve tried I don’t think I want to stop.

Erik, Before and After

I just finished the outline of Erik’s new traditional eagle chest piece tattoo. Also today, I started reworking Jenny’s side piece. It’s fairly common these days that I am finishing or reworking tattoos on my friends when the original artists can’t be found. Is there something about tattoo artists and disappearing? It has been a long day, to end a long week. I have a life filled with many blessings.

First Light Painting Session

I have spent a few late nights painting this new piece recorded my session last night to give you an idea of what’s gone into the painting so far. I’d estimate that so far it has been about 20 or so hours of work. I’m still not finished, but will post pictures as soon as I am.
