First oil painting.
:]
Took about 4 hours.
Reference used.

..and since no one ever seems to be able to tell what's in the background, it's a planet :d

great first go! ...I could tell it was a planet even as a thumbnail..some people are just crazy I think. :p I love the spacey background.

i want to start doing oils too but I don't have a suitable area for them!
:iconzeplinqueen:

and you should do oils! omm<3 they're the most fun to work with by farr. imo.

well, to me it is very clear. I think they just weren't expecting to see open space above a forest :P It reminds me somewhat of the movie "Contact" which you haven't seen I bet. One of the major scenes takes place on a beautiful coral beach, with two people walking and talking... and the atmosphere is really thin so you can see straight into space, a very clear sun, and planets (i think planets? I dont remember), stars, etc. And they applied an interesting shimmer to the whole scene. It's great.

Sadly, the floors are wood here... Paint thinner would screw them up if i spilled a drop. Also the ventilation isn't that great... and I don't want to be inhaling paint thinner fumes 4-5 hours a day!

Awwwww I was gonna say planet too but now I can't or else it'll be very 'you read that first...' lol. It's cool! :)

I like the wintery scene.
