Oily

I have recently started using oil paints again after being inspired by the works of Peter Smith who is world renowned for his paintings of quirky striped creatures known as Impossimals. If you've never come across his work, then take a look at his website http://www.petersmithcollective.co.uk/.

I have been doing some fine detail work this evening on a piece I have been working on for a couple of weeks when I can get the time. It's quite a challenge as it's taken me some time to get used to painting with oils but I'm getting more comfortable with them day by day.

This is another painting I have been doing which is more complete but still needs a fair amount of work. Its a copy of Peter Smith's "When Boy Meets Girl"
