Want to see what else I've been up to?




I've been making jewelry and selling them on ebay and etsy.com. My etsy store is sophiesbeads.etsy.com. I have my best stuff there. It's a new and fun way to use my artistic talent. I'm using my hands to sculpt, which I have always enjoyed, but this site is still going to primarily show my paintings.

Almost done


Last night I finished up the Eiffel Tower painting. Now I just need to paint the edges of the canvas and let it all dry. My guess is it will probably take up to 3 weeks to get completely dry.

Getting closer


I was able to get more of the Eiffel Tower painting done today. Here it is. It is more detailed than the cityscape painting, but keep in mind it is on a large canvas, so it looks more detailed than it really is. This picture is only a fraction of the actual size. Click on the picture to see it better.

Ready to finish

The Eiffel Tower painting's background is finally dry, so it's ready to get finished. Once it is, though, it will take a couple weeks to dry again. Black seems to be the color that takes the most time to dry. Hopefully I'll have it ready to post a picture in the next couple days.
