Brook - Acrylic on Canvas

Brook (40 x 50cm)

This painting is a miserable rip-off of Bob Ross's fantastic painting Marshland (season 6 episode 12). His colors are much more brilliant than mine, though. Acrylic paints look rather dull when dry (Oh, that's a good one! I'll remember that when I mess up my next painting... :-)

Venice - Acrylic on Linen covered Cardboard

Venice (50 x 70 cm)

I painted this picture using the photograph shown below as a template. I wanted it to be a bit proto-expressionist, so all inaccuracies are on purpose :-) I test-framed it using a cheap "FISKBO" frame by IKEA, so it doesn't bend under its own weight.

I just noticed that I forgot several windows. Also, adding a few reflections might improve the overall appearance. Still, it could have turned out worse.

Flight across the Alps - Acrylic on Canvas

Flight across the Alps (40 x 50 cm)

Incomplete. There's an empty space on the lower right side of the painting (below the mountain peaks), where I might add a mountain lake (with reflections).

Bistrot - Acrylic on Canvas

Bistrot (45 x 55 cm)

Quasi-expressionist painting of a scene in an Absinth-bar. No, I don't get paid by the Pernod distillery. Hopefully not sued either...

Woodland - Acrylic on Canvas

Woodland (30 x 40 cm)

This was my first attempt at painting in the Bob Ross-style. Sky, evergreen trees and bushes in the foreground went well. The mountain range and the "forest" in between less so, I'm afraid.

Abandoned Beetle - Acrylic on Canvas

Abandoned Beetle (40 x 50 cm)

Sky, background and bushes were painted in the Bob Ross-style (wet-on-wet). Rusty Volkswagen Beetle was copied from an old photograph.
