A Fantastic Brush.

Hello peeps,
Well from my last blog I haven’t even started Bubbles Are Fun as I had another image in mind and the canvas I had was too small, I want to go big on this one. So what was the image in mind? Well as you know am finding theses trees interesting to paint, so am experimenting more on theses little chaps, it involves hills trees and it’s at night. Also painting 3 is coming along nicely a load more to do on it and the other painting is still under work (box canvas one).


Lately I have been trying out new brushes and this one has become my favourite! You can do lines with extreme accuracy, thus given you sharper edges and a more complex painting (although mine a quite plane at the moment).

All canvas are wet now so wont be painting till Monday or Tuesday. I’ll be doing a David Robinson art page on FaceBook be sure to join thank you. :-D

First Blog In 2010


Hi guys,

I haven't done a blog in a few weeks I have been enjoying the holidays. As you know I have finished the big canvas and since doing it I don't think I can paint any smaller than that as you can put a lot more detail in it and I just like to paint big. I have signed the back of it and put my logo on the front, but I don't like putting the copy right logo on my paintings now so I leave that off, also I have hot glued the brushes on the back of the painting, ones that was damaged painting it as mention in a previous blog. All I need to do, is put a varnish on it. Here is a new picture of it in a better light, here you can see it's true colours, the other one was taken at night and it has made all the colours dull. I will be updating the image on my web site as well.

In other news:
College started again and we went to London to look at galleries, did not like as I don't like crowed places plus I got home sick and was missing my Ceri.
Also just bought myself a Apple laptop PowerBook G4 12" as I was sick of using Windows, don't get me wrong it does the job I just prefer Apples OS. Sorry am a Apple geek and am going on.
And last but not least, I will be starting a new painting called Bubbles Are Fun and my little piggy is in it :-D

Mini Painting.

Hi guys,
Just a quick update on what am painting. I am painting a Mini and I cant stop, as its acrylic and the paint dry’s so quickly am drawn to it all the time, the time am finished of what I want to do with it I have had enough of painting for that day. I will continue on my oil paintings as soon as this one is finished.

The reason for painting in acrylics, is that am working on all my own oil paintings at once, then it takes about 3 days to dry so I thought ill start a painting with acrylics in the mean time while the others dry, but it has taken over! Am sure you will like it as I have shown it to family and friends and its all thumbs up from them.

Its a British racing green, it has the Mini badge in the top right corner and the background will have the union jack. It will be available to purchase from www.davidrobinsonart.co.uk

:-D

Busy, busy bee


Hey guys! :-D

I haven’t bolged in a while as I have been so busy with college work people who are reading this in FaceBook will know how much. So what have I been doing besides college work? Yes painting! My third painting, that I have been putting off has come a long way nearly finished in fact, it also has my new technique of shading and shadows and to me is looking brilliant it makes my first two look plain I could add affect to my first ones, but am keeping them as they are so you can see how much I have progressed over the months. I have also been painting my experimental piece which also looks very interesting and last but least my BIG painting all that needs doing is the background :-D

Today I have continued to paint, but also done a bit of my college project which involves clay, well I think its clay, I opened it and it made my studio like a hospital. Once I finished what I wanted to do with my college project I made a little figure of my little piggy’s hope you like, keep in mind it still needs to be painted and it's 1 inch high:-D

Hey guys here is my T-shirt. I have found one thing wrong with it and I think you can see from the above picture that the picture on the T-shirt is not center, I spent a lot of time on the net placing it right in the middle and they mess up, I think I will have to make a phone call and see what they have to say for themselves. You can see in my earlyer blog that the image was center. The picture underneath is what it should look like.
