Painter's Log, Star Date 2/6/08. It's been 12 years (gasp) since I've painted with my oils, so I thought I'd list my first and only portraits to kick start me into boldly going where I've never gone before: a second project. I'm a huge original Star Trek fan, so it was only natural I chose Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock as my fist subjects. What do you think? I bought a bunch of blank canvases of all sizes and hope to get my butt in gear this weekend...

Hi there..
Those portraits are AWESOME! Good luck to you getting back into painting.. I'm sure you'll find it immensely rewarding!
:)
THANKS Emily! Now if I can just find those oil paints...LOL
Great job with those. I can't wait to see your new works.
Great paintings. I can't wait to see you new works.
Somehow, the "Lost" connotation (Dharma) goes well with your Star Trek paintings...
TAG!
Oh boy, I give you a lot of credit for working with oils. I have patience but not for messsy oil.
THANK YOU all so much!!! I've already set time aside this weekend to work on another one. :-)
Live long and prosper, Wendy....
