Boat at Dock

Well, a few things.  This one was really fun to paint, but I made like a million mistakes in doing it.  The clouds are almost non existant, the reeds in the front are there because I painted the underside of the dock poorly.  The antenna on the boat is really supposed to be the mast of a ship behind the boat.

But its all good, I had a great time painting this picture and for all its faults, think it turned out great.

Castle on a Lake

This one took me two lunch times to complete.  Well, it took one, plus about 15 minutes, but who's counting.  I think it turned out pretty well.  I really like the reflections in the water.  Maybe this will be the start of some really good paintings for me.
