Painting a picture - part one.

I've picked up the brush after far to many years, and I'm really enjoying slapping the paint around..



First the rough sketch, this only took me two days and a dozen different images to work what the central tiki was crushing with his maori war club.



Slap on the basic colours.



Then the background colour, I have a big tube of cobalt blue, so I'm using it.




Finally some faux wood grain on the club and its time to clean my brushes.
