I experimented with several things in this painting. (1) I used a dark background which is a bit out of the ordinary for me, and (2) I used a new medium by Gamblin called Neo Megilp. The Neo Megilp gives an incredible shiny finish to the paintings that I am very happy with. I wasn't quite sure what to name this one, so Blood Red it is!
Also, I have struggled and struggled with getting good photos of my paintings, and I've resorted to scanning them after they have dried until I find another solution.

Pork Rose
It's been a few weeks since I've posted, and though I was feeling rusty, I painted my first rose and am pretty happy with it. I thought the rose was going to be more problematic than the pig. Boy was I surprised! I had a few titles in mind: "Pig N Rose", "Rosy Pig", but I am happy with Pork Rose.
