I never get to paint like this anymore. In fact its been years since I painted with acrylic and I love it so much. The thing is its too messy and time consuming these days.
These paintings were all done back in 2005 I think when I had a fanciful notion - for about a fortnight - that I could make money by painting. I sold about five pictures before realising I was bearly covering the cost of materials and working for about 10p an hour.
This first never got finished. Its an odd one a shows off how awful I am with composition amongst other things. There is a practical side to me that wants to say I'll use the canvas for something else, but really I love this picture. I have no idea why or what to do with it.
This is me. This one may be painted over but since I haven't painted with acrylic for so long I'm worried I may not be able to paint as well.
This last one I don't know what to do with. By the subject's own admission this wasn't a very honest picture though it brings back a lot of memories. I might just put him back in the cupboard for a bit longer.
