First Tiger

I was always afraid to paint a tiger..I procratinated with it..I watched videos, looked at lots of tiger photos...never practice a tiger..until yesterday..A boy requested a tiger..I was impressed with my self......I painted lots of little faces yesterday...take a look..I hope I can download my pic...here we go

I've download photo's before..I can't do it today..so I just added the link above and updated my gallery...

Sorry its a little big..I don't know how to resize

Oops clips still in her hair..novice

lookin' good! The only thing I'd say about the tiger is that is a LOT of DOTS.... it makes it look a little busy to me. I like the stars, that is a very nice design.

I know, the dots was a little much..I realize it after I took the photo..Thank you..I need all the help I can get...I am excited..this weekend took me to the next level in Painting..I used my new director bar stool, which saved my back..also cute little pastel chairs that my husband painted...got to experience with a whole lot of different paints, glitters..and rainbow cakes..I have more gigs coming up..Alice in wonderland birthday party..Perry, you got any ideas for the Cheshire Cat from Alice in wonderland?

Congrats! They all look fab for starting out. AND I am soooo happy you figured out how to post the pics!

Thank you..I forgot how I downloaded in the pass..I just have to learn how to resize...

Nice thanks

You've done a great job, keep it up!

Thank you Criss..I can't wait for the next event..I am high on face paint...lol...oops I better watch how I say that..

It's okay, we know your not using aerosol paint

lol..nope

or glitter glue? ;D

Hey, those are fab for starting out! I'm sure that boy LOVED his tiger! He probabyl is still sleeping in it and won't let momma wash it off! hehe

The most important thing is you 'finally jumped into it and got your feet wet doing a Tiger!' From now on out you will just refine your design as you paint it...saving the bits you really like and altering it until you are doing it just as you picture it in your mind!

Great Job!

Thank you..I think a was just as excited as the kid...I wanted him to sleep with it...lol

Your tiger is great! My first tiger makes me laugh! Yours is much, much better than my feeble first attempt.....

Thank you..I seen your gallery..your paintings are beautiful...I like your monster..

THE FIRST THING I EVER PAINTED WAS A TIGER! It was my nickname when I was a kid. I think you did a FANTASTIC JOB! I love CATS and I want to do them in every color! LOL. At a masquerade party my boyfriend inadvertently (before we were dating and just friends) wore a batman mask, and I wore a little black cat mask. We got coined "batman and catwoman" and it stuck. LOL Think I'll be "catwoman" with a painted face this year! OH HOW FUN!

Keep up the good work!

Thanks very much. You are very kind. That monster is in the illusions and friends book. I put it in with my examples for gigs and now boys and girls all want it!

Hey thanks...I love cats..so one of the first things that I painted was cats/kittys...Now I want to do larger cats..like lions, tigers cheetahs...
Glenda, I was thinking about purchasing the Illusions and friends book..Is it appropriate for beginners too....I wouldn't mind trying that monster...Boys just love it..well monsters...

I applaud you Renee! I really liked the tiger! I'm where you were...uh...I keep looking at tiger FP but everytime I sit down to practice, I paint a butterfly (it's the lover in me ignoring the fighter?). You've inspired me to at least try! That and the Spiderman thing...I don't know if it's the full face thing that has me cowering or if I'm just afraid of the colors. I want...no, I NEED to tackle this and knowing that you, at one time, shared my fear of the tiger helps! I'm going to give it a go!...next week.
