These last days, I have been unfaithful to my sewing machine and needles and I have dedicated all my free time to canvases and brushes...
For the first time of my life I have had the occasion to paint on BIG canvas wit BIG brushes and I love it!!!
I am having so much fun , it is really great! Now, I wish I could find some time to go to some courses with a tutor to learn about techniques, dos and dont's etc.... maybe this summer :) For now, internet is my best friend and I am mainly learning from... well, my mistakes :)

So, here is my first ever painting :)
It's quite dark and gloomy but I really love it! Because it is full of shadows and dark tones, it is very difficult to photograph but I did my best. I didn't plan anything for this painting, it just build up slowly while I was working on it.

This is my first character. I left the face features for the end and was really afraid I would mess up as it is the first time I tried a new way of making her features. It went fine, and I really like her expression :)
This is the third one, another character and this one is not finished yet. I still need to work the background and her hair. I am really proud of the Tee shirt part!
Et voilà ! Hope you like them :)
I now need to varnish them and from I read online, I need to choose the proper finish for my varnish because it is going to have a real influence on the final result... Some more stress involved :)
Happy Sunday!
