Some of my art - Oil paintings
This one is of a godwit surrounded by Lunaria annua, better known as annual honesty.
This was my first oil painting EVER, and I am so happy with how it turned out, it is defintely one of my favourites !
This one is of a STURGEON ! I LOVE LOVE LOVE STURGEONS ! The text is from newspaper article from the 50s or something. The newspaper is called 'Great Falls' , the article is about a huge sturgeon being caught in the Flathead Lake.
This painting was an experiment for me, I had never painted fish before, so this was my first try.
This is a started, but not finished painting of a pretty generic beetle, I might make it a Polyphylla fullo, or pine chafer.
This one if of two butterflies, I forgot which species, on some thistles. Not much of a story behind this one, I just really wanted to paint something and I grabbed a picture from my calender (which had a picture for each day of the year).
This one is a painting of a tree (you can imagine it as the tree of life, or Yggdrasil or whatever you please) which I saw in my dreams. It actually started out as an acryl painting, but I never could make any painting work with acryl, so I went over it with oil. It is still a work in progress.
This is a landscape painting from an archeological site in Turkey, it is not finished yet. I might just use the colours already visible on the canvas, or I might add a splash of bright red, because the site was surrounded by the most gorgeous poppy fields.

CRYPTIDTOBER
October 7th, 2023
THE FLATHEAD LAKE MONSTER
-
The lake should be calm.
It feels calm.
Feels like a bright summer morning, a sweet Sunday with young kids having their fun, running around, laughing.
The calmness of childhood.
And yet you freeze in place when that enormous thing makes itself be seen.
Now, a cold chaos brings you he calmness to an ends.
No child should play here.

After many failed Inktobers, I decided to stop trying to follow prompt lists that always end up boring me, so I'm challenging myself to draw a cryptid per day for all the month of October!
No lists, no prompts, just me drawing random creatures I like!
How fun is that?
