I wasn't sure how this first one was going to come out, some parts came out better then I expected, and other parts i'm not sure. Since it has been years since I've done a painting like this, and never have on canvas before, I guess i'm pretty happy with the overall outcome of this painting.

This second painting I just finished yesterday. I've liked the real Pearl Jam picture that I did this painting from since the album came out last may. The picture is dark and I liked the colors in it. The background really blue and the mound of PJ flesh; red, brown, black and colors of the innards. There is alot of shapeless blobs, so i just blobbed on the paint, mixing lots of reds, and browns. With the blue, I just kept adding white as I was going along. I outline the PJ Pile O' Flesh to make them standout more. I'm pretty happy with the outcome of this painting, though not as detailed as I originally wanted it to be.

    Pop-art feel goes well with the genre. I'm also liking the "background" portion. Nice job.

    I am glad my paintings are liked. Thanks. Yes, these were painting using acrylic paint. Since i'm no good with taking photos of things, I couldn't get a good shot of the painting to show more of it's details. Plus the glare from the flash of the camera.

    I dont really like the one of Ed, its not that its bad, way better than anything i could do, it just a little cartoon-ish to me, i like the background you've done though.

    The 2nd one is great. Good job.

    I think they're really good. I like them both. You said you've never painted on canvas before. What do you usually use? Thanks for sharing. :)

    When I did paint and it has been along time, I painted on poster boards, which can be seen here. - http://www.angelfire.com/il3/leespjartpage/art.htm
    I'm glad my paintings are liked. Makes me feel good, when not to many things do.
