Flowers (Acrylic on Canvas)

An Oldie but a Goodie.

Despite there being a) purple and 2) lots of unpainted (white) canvas left remaining, which is a clear violation of two of the Six Rules of Bad Amateur Painting, DESPITE ALL THIS, yes, we seem to have a rather nice painting on our hands. It’s a little umm basic, but still. These are some very decent-looking flowers!

Well done, Franki-who-was-painting-almost-forty-years-ago :)
 

Gnome (Acrylic on Wood)

We haven’t seen a gnome in good long while.

It was nice while it lasted…

Fat Wolf or Fox and Northern Lights (Acrylic on Canvas)

Too much blue, too much black, too much unpainted canvas and…a silhouette! Four of our six “Bad Amateur Painting” rules violated on one painting. Doh!

Flowers (Crayon, Tempera and Colored Pencil on Paper)

 A child probably did this. It is MAGNIFICENT!!! A+++++

(Ha! Were you expecting me to crush some little kid’s dreams? What kind of monster do you think I am…”

Mountain Landscape (Acrylic on Canvas)

Thoroughly average. But our baseline is pretty low.

If a kid did this: keep trying, my young friend 🙂

If a grownup did it: reconsider the path you are on…

Silhouette Cat (Acrylic on Canvas)

Pretty umm not that great. Plus it violates four of my rules about bad amateur painting: using black, blue, purple and silhouettes. Feh!

 

Fat Smoking Star (Acrylic on Canvas)

Really weird. Bordering on repugnant. No idea what the hell this is supposed to be about. But it’s a painting and this is an Art Gallery so 🤷‍♂️

 

Mountain Scenes (Acrylic on Canvas)

Same artist, same(ish) subjects, different paintings. Real Art and real effort expended. We support this kind of thing 100%

Good job, anonymous artistic-type person.

Coconuts (Charcoal on Parchment)

Framed and behind glass. I tried to stay out of the reflection.

Not bad. It looks like what it’s supposed to look like. Which around here is sometimes a little rare.

Good work, J. Jonah Jameson..
