i have done a few over the last few years...mainly for art class. im not too impressed with the ones i do for classes...but ive finally finished one im very proud of. my god this took a long time to finish. it was for art class...but it was due a loong time ago, so i finished it at home. david took a picture of himself for me to paint. i tried very hard to keep it as photorealistic as possible.

This was painted about a year ago in art class. i just now thought of taking a picture of it an submitting it. this was painted with acrylic on un-gessoed stretched canvas. it was an experiment and i like how old it looks for sale on my [a href="http://kinstler.110mb.com"]website[/a]

The Waters of Sulis

Mary Kinstler — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 06:11:01 GMT

i think it turned out kind of nice...maybe because its a little dark and moody compaired to normal landscapes :P About 30+ hours of work Sulis in Celtic mythology is the goddess of the hot springs and the water of life. Water is connected with the moon and its tides. Spirituality and feminine forces are connected with water in many religions and beleifs. Water is such a powerful element and should never be reckonded with, it may over power you with its flowing beauty. Water is needed by everything on this earth, from the smallest sprout to the most grand of animals. Water is the beginning of life. Without it nothing on this earth would exist, and if we loose it we will all be in a great deal of trouble. Only 1 percent of the earth's water is able to drink. If we happen to lose this rare resource global hunger will no longer be the biggest world problem, there will be a shortage of the water that keeps us all alive as well. That is why we must respect such a powerful element. Even just the littlest of help from volunteers will move us towards keeping our water safe. Picking up just a little bit of litter or keeping that can of pop in your hand until you find a trash can will make that much of a difference. Everything has to start somewhere. One person's actions can affect so many.

Fall to Ruin

Mary Kinstler — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 06:09:12 GMT

The trees are not mourning over their own deaths, they are mourning over yours. Do not kill which keeps you alive. After the death of the earth, there can never be a rebirth. -------------- 8 hours. im sorry this took so long, its just that this painting never really seemed to attach itself to me like all my others, so i never really wanted to go back to it. but im glad it's done, my dad likes it. for sale on my [a href="http://kinstler.110mb.com"]website[/a]

This piece was just a spontaneous thing.

Midnight Garden

Mary Kinstler — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 06:05:33 GMT

i needed to try out my new oil paints...so i thought a nice painting of mushrooms for my first oil painting would be a nice trial. i learned some things. be careful with linseed oil, for it is shiny and if it is only on one part of the painting it will not look good. i wanted the mushrooms to have a spontanious feel, and almost an abstract perspective

Erosion

Mary Kinstler — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 06:04:11 GMT

About 14 hours of work produced this painting. the main feeling i was searching for is to be overwhelmed, as though you are being smothered. but since it lookes like an aloe plant it might be healing or protection. Maybe too much of a good thing just might be a bad thing. this was inspired by "The Garden of Earthly Delights" by Hieronymus Bosch

Miracle Residue

Mary Kinstler — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 06:03:09 GMT

"What if life was just a dream...a dream created by our inner souls. The main character as ourselves, but everyone we know in this dream is just a fragment of our intense imagination? Anything we knew or will know is simply composed by our minds...and were never really real at all. Life just a big playground for our conception of the world. Create your own life...change the hard reality into your own fabrication." I had to take a photograph of it ..it was so big :D some of colors are distorted because of the glare from the camera flash.
