acire2's portfolio part 4

the top one is a 48"x36" acrylic of chandelier crystals based on a close-up photo by her sister Madeleine. the second is a small 5"x7" acrylic acire2 does of pups - this one a purebred yellow lab with a mutated black ear - one of the PADS dogs. acire2 does these to save for art school so contact her at acire2@gmail.com. interestingly, this painting was basically rejected at portfolio day as competent, but not interesting enough. a pure-bred with a mutated ear not interesting?

ok, a couple more - the young lady sipping from the cup is the famous hannahv of hannahvmusic on youtube - soon to be featured here. The second is an exercise from emily carr's summer institute for teens and is painting and collage. that summer institute is highly recommended. These artworks are big and bold.
