Not really an attempt, now is it? Cause it looks like you've been working in oil for years, it really is good!!!

[Sage Oz]

And Dexter is awesome btw, great subject choice and I love the newer heavy dark background.

[graveghoul]

You are amazing!!!

[DiarrheaSuitcase]

Agree, beautiful work man! ...and you're a jerk for being this awesome with a first attempt.

good job you got the oils down quick! One thing is he does look really young in that pic like a 20 yr old dexter

[Sage Oz]

Yes the budding killer in his early manhood lol...

[CajunDave]

[CajunDave]

the city i live in sucks so bad for art lol. its a super cajun in all aspects kinda like the show swamp people :) no market for any art thats not cajun or very rooted in coonass culture. the dexter painting is 16x20 and i cant even get it sold here with a price tag of 200$ :(

[Sage Oz]

I'll happily buy it if you hold it for me a couple weeks to put together the cash, or we could trade a painting...Ive got a pretty cool acrylic I did of Godzilla that's the same size. Surprised that you want to sell it as its your first, for sentiments and all ;)

Dude !! That's so good !

[thesmokingmirror]

I would like to see that Godzilla painting Sage!

[Sage Oz]

I'll post a couple pics of my art next time I get to the shop

[Scentless Apprentice]
