On our way from Asia to Italy

Got you huh! The Asian mural is what is hanging on my living room wall right now. Lately I am feeling more Italian. So I have decided to paint a Tuscany, Italy painting. Don't worry the Asian mural is going to end up in another room of the house, they are too beautiful not to hang. They were actually given to us by Miguel's friend that he used to work with, who is from Vietnam. The lighter colors on the hanging are made out of mother of pearl.

I don't know if they way I paint is correct, I just wanted to show its progression.

Oil Painting

These are some oil paintings that I have done in the past. I am not the greatest painter, but I try. I took painting classes about 8 years ago for a couple of months. Most of these I have done on my own, as you can probably tell. As you can see, I went through an animal phase. I am considering selling some of these paintings because they are just collecting dust in my home. Maybe? However the cute boy below is not for sell, he never sits still long enough to collect dust, and besides that I like him!!
