I tried using a dry brush technique for part of this one.

This was fun. I used all sorts of different techniques and oil pastels, too.

I don't know why this turned out like this - but I like it!

Part of the fun of painting for me is starting to paint and having absolutely no plan whatsoever
and seeing what happens.

work in progress

I like this one.
Now I need a title for it.

close-up

scratched through the paint and used the oil pastels too

Not sure this is totally done.
Next pic shows what I painted over...

I was quite OK with
painting over this one. 

I was thinking cityscape when I did this and a friend on Facebook saw Easter Island.
Come on over and see my "helvismith"  page on Facebook.   I post there almost everyday.

This is a big 4'X4' canvas that I am working on.

Village with three orange trees

Village with one orange tree

I got some oil pastels and have been having fun with those!

Worked on this today.  A city scene.
(in my mind, at least...)

Another city scene

Not a city scene...

I did this outline and then...

Colored it in. 
This was a LOT of work as I had to go back over ALL the black lines twice.

Thought I was done - but then decided to fill in all the spaces.
