Paint lends itself well to your cartooning style. Your attention to detail while handling a painting for the first time is impressive, and I'm drawn a lot to the distinct fusion of bold lines in the characters and the lovely painted texture of the grass.

Nice one.
:iconfunhat:
I love this one, I think it's my very favorite out of all of the ones you've put up so far. It just seems to have more personality, but that's probably because you're using your own characters instead of someone else's.

Anyway, good work, please keep it up!
:icontrisk:
Twisp and Catsby fits very well with the painting, moreso than the regular drawn and colored.

This is a signature. It is mine. Not yours.
So uhm...go away!
:iconcheezweazl:
Well, that does look a sight better than my first paintings, so kudos there. I agree with the earlier comment that this painting has more of a visceral connection than a couple of your others, mainly because of the intimate familiarity you have with the characters. Anyhow, keep it up, I have always found physical art to be one of my more productive vices.

This is just so sweet. I do hope you'll do more paintings of T&C. Their whimsy and old-fashioned charm make them look so natural on canvas.

I'm afraid this one is my favorite, not to say you haven't progressed, but I really like stars and there's like 11 of them in this picture!

On top of that it's got a lot going on, and the original characters have a ton of personality oozing off them.

The colours are lovely on the flowered grass.

Well done for a painting novice, I'm sure you'll only improve.

Curious about who this Tanake Trang is?
:iconleahnardo:
For some reason, out of all your paintings, I like the composition of this one best...even though it was your first. It may be the more complex background that does it. Can you bottle some of your inspiration? I'd buy it.

This is absolutely wonderful!
