Make it Monday - Oil Paintings

After almost a year, I finally got around to breaking out the oil paints again. I tried a flower last year and discovered how hard it is to paint with oils.

Nico did a picture of fire. I developed a little idea of trying to paint the other elements. Today I attempted air and water which is also pretty challenging. I found the blues very calming.

I prefer the picture on the right for the idea of motion although I may do some more on this later. Sometimes I think it's best to wait a bit and see how the paint settles and let the idea float around a bit more.

Hopefully I'll find more time to work on this again.
