Steph101 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 My husband, who usually does landscape waterdcolours, has just finished a quick watercolour of our beloved George (see photobucket link below) - only took him half an hour! What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph101 Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 Thank you - I'll show him these comments. He doesn't think he's any good, and says it's just my opinion. His efforts usually go straight in the bin, and I think they're brilliant. I think it's a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 that is fab I wish I could paint half as good as him I love the way the light is shining on her front cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 What a lovely painting. Please tell him he's really talented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfrock Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I think it is beautiful. He really seems to have captured the spirit of a chook. He needs to have more faith in himself! I can't even draw a squiggle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ana's flock Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I think it's really sweet. It has movement. I can almost hear it 'bok boking' or guess where she's going to peck next. The best thing is that your hubby did actually go and painted it. I have been meaning to sketch the chooks even since we got them over one year ago and still haven't got round to do it! I love painting but I'm awfully lazy when it comes to get the colours and brushes out. ...perhaps when I recover from this horrid cold and I'm up on my feet again...

BeckyBoo Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 It's really good! I'd love to be able to paint animals, and to do it so quickly - sometimes that's half the battle, not overworking things. It's got a real "life" quality to it, how he can think it's no good I don't know. Really good! If he put it in a simple frame I KNOW he'd be able to sell it. Really nice, well done hubby Mrs Bertie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
