From Start to Finish.

My third oil painting. 'Church on The Beach' I thought it would be good to take photos of it as I went along.
This is actually stage 2 as my computer deleted the first set of pictures I had taken.


Stage 3.
The church and buildings are now completed and so far have taken 4 arts lesson to do.


Stage 4.
Finally finished last Thursday. There are supposed to be two people walking towards the church but I told my art teacher that my painting was done before they arrived!!!!!!! Chicken or what!


I'm really quite pleased with the end result. Have started the next one already which is 'Flying Ducks'. Watch this space!!
Speaking of ducks, I seem to have taken to this painting malarky like a duck to water (ouch) so much so that I'm off to do a one day painting with water colours class. Cistern chapel here I come.

    Great to see the stage by stage progression and a lovely finished piece (perhaps the two people already went in the church!)

    Mrs A. has no problem with the smell of thinners in fact she told me it tastes pretty good too!
    That reminds me I need more of that to prescribe to my next patient as I have run out of White Lightning cider !!
