Kiss of Death

The Kiss of Death

This is another Acrylic painting on canvas that i've done.
I'm really getting into these!! I'm loving the texture of the canvas and the more messy style of painting, also using a lot of paint, I found this hard to do when I first started painting on the canvas, I found myself spreading the paint out and smoothing it as much as I could and soon realised it was deffinately NOT the way forward. :):):)


There wasn't really any inspiration for this painting it was a bit of a play about, it took my quite a while to think of what to put with the skull, I thought of the lipstick kiss but was super nervous because I had NEVER attempted to do them before. I decided to just go for it and it worked suprisingly well :D:D:D

I'm super impressed by this painting and my skulls are getting loads better!! :):)





Practice really does make perfect.

Skulls and Roses

Skulls and Roses


My Iron fist shoes there too ;)
          This is a pretty classic mix, the skull and the roses.

      It is also a very inspirational design, you can do almost anything with the skull and the rose and people will love it. The elegance of the Rose balances out the dim story behind the skull, they go hand in hand.


     I've taken a big interest in the skull and the rose ever since i've decided tattoo's were a gods gift.
Like I said, it's a classic!!
 So, I took it apon myself to have another shot at the skull and rose.
         My first attempt was tattooed onto my left foot. :):):)

   My second attempt has been put onto canvas using acrylic paint.
 It came out beautiful and it is based on a more traditional tattoo style. I personally think I did a pretty ace job but I think maybe more practice for the style of the rose.
