Ceiling Tile Progress

This my ceiling tile in progress. The tiger is almost completed, I just have to finish the mouth and add some details. Then I have to paint my background, which will be grey, and paint my name in metallic gold. I love the way my project is turning out so far, but there are still improvements I need to make.

Texture Acrylic Painting


This is my texture acrylic painting project. it is made of toilet paper and glue on canvas, covered with gesso to seal and the painted with acrylic paint. I got my inspiration for the peacock from a pin on pinterest . What I love about my project is the way all the colors fit together. Overall I did not think this project was super challenging, rather just very time consuming and took a lot of patience. I'm happy with the way my project turned out.

Acrylic Color Chart

This is my acrylic color chart. Its a display of all the original acrylic paints and the mixtures of two of the colors. It also she the tints of every color made. I think this chart will really help make with all my future projects that use acrylic paint and it will help guide me. This project only took me about a week to complete and I think its looks really cool.

Water Color Paintings


The piece on the left is my abstract painting, I used the wash water color technique to create it. I found it a but challenging because I had to use white water color in the piece. The paint just took on its own shape in the water and that's how some of the cool effects appeared. I like this piece and the results of it.












 The piece on the right is my still life painting in a book page. I really likes this project and would like to another one. I'm really wanting spring to come early this year and that's what inspired me to do flowers. I used a wash water technique and I'm really happy with how this project turned out.
This piece is my landscape. The painting is of a Japanese Cherry Blossom tree in a mountain landscape. The challenge of this piece was getting the tree to look as realistic as I could. I think my project could have turned out better, but I'm not completely disappointed in it.







This piece is my tutorial. The painting is in an African setting and shows elephants and an native tree. My biggest challenge in this piece was trying to get all the colors in the sky to blend well. I am happy about how this piece turned out in the end though. If I could change something, I would add more detail to the ground.
