anybody work in traditional media?

I painted this of my great-grandmother (from a photo) in oils:

Very nice! You have exceptional talent and have you done many in this manner or you don't have the 'time' that you would like to have in order to do more? It's superbly well done and remarkably very good art! :thumb:

on the computer I mainly use Photoshop and ImageReady (and very rarely, Painter) but that one was done the old fashioned way with a brush and pigment in oils :)

Then I photographed it and scanned the slide, here's a larger copy of it:

Wow man. I did tried paint my grandparents in oils but couldnt get the textures done. It's kinda hard for me. My family was disappointed when I can't complete it. I just let that painting sit on my shelf. I can't do realistic paintings but only can do cartoon. My grandmother's eye look like cartoon... man.

Another darn great painting! Why did you ask "fine art?" with a question mark? Of course it's Fine Art whether it's painting on paper, canvas, wall or anything! The monochromatic tone gives the image a very antique feeling. It gives you a feeling of looking at the old tin photos from the early Frontier Days (1900's). I really like the 'halo' effects around her.

NICE, dude!!!!!! :thumb:
