It's been a while since I oiled my brushes and splashed some paint on to a canvas... What was more interesting was when I told a friend of mine, I've finally done up an interesting painting over the weekend, my friend said "Put it up on your blog; it's been a while since i checked it out"... and in my head I thought "Me too!".So I'm done with my sabbatical and I've decided to get back at my favourite pastime; with a vengeance this time. Let's just say I've made my resolution a few days short of the new year. Hopefully before I break it I have a least a couple of ideas put up out here to save face!
My stenciled tiger has more work gone into it than what you would think. It originally was a scissor cutout on hand-paper that I picked up at an exhibition near my office. I got home happy with my purchase when my better half gave me this idea of translating it on to a big canvas. Initially I thought what's the big deal in that? Why waste such a huge canvas for a snipped tiger that doesn't even occupy the entire canvas? And not even get to use any of the primary colours- just black (eesh)!
