Here are my latest paintings. I came up with the idea sometime during the end of January, very beginning of February, and finished them middle/end of March. It is a set of four skyscapes of pictures that I took on a trip in either Europe or Missouri (three from Europe, one from Missouri). They are all done with oil on acrylic on canvas. This is the first time I have attempted both on one canvas, though I think all of the acrylic is now covered up. It gave it a nice texture, and gave me a good idea of where I wanted to go with them. Next time I combine the two mediums, I may have more acrylic show, but that will depend on the piece, of course.
I think I am, however, beginning a new series of such "Skyscapes." and have begun my second set. Like the oceans idea, I'm going to try to take this as far as I can and then move onto something else. That's the plan at least. These are pretty successful though. Still, I am unsure how I want them hung, whether four in a square as below (and in what order?), or as four in a line (also in what order?); also whether to keep them an inch or so apart, or touch the edges of each to each other. That will remain to be seen. But as they are now:
