Some old paintings new
      #3322955 - 09/08/09 09:16 PM Attachment (16 downloads)

Hey guys

Being new to the site I curiously looked into other forum topics and stumbled upon this! These images were painted several years ago in high school... they're alright. All are acrylics (except the scratchpaper), and there is evidence of their age with all the scratches and whatnot on them. But I thought I'd share
Let me know what you think!

The M42 piece is a little out of proportion. And I'll love anyone who knows that the scratchpaper piece is the machine in Carl Sagan's Contact (best movie!). I did all of these off memory so they're not perfect

The lunar image, that one reminds me of the 1930s offerings by Charles Schneeman et. al.; a nice nostalgic air about it. I like it.
