New Painting

Well, despite being a bit peeved due to money concerns earlier, I went back to being my usual self. Yay! I believe that you can decide to be happy or upset, so after being a bit upset I figured enough was enough and it's time to just say "I'll try my best to have things be right, then leave the rest to Waheguru".

So, after doing some grocery shopping, I started listening to my favorite Wuauquikuna song and felt inspired to do a bit of painting.

This song is called "Buffalo White" and I think it is just so beautiful. It puts me in a state of peace.

Here's my painting, done in a background of 3 layers of red which I had applied using one of those paint rollers from the hardware store, and then I applied some Payne's Gray using my fingers. It's not the best thing I've ever done, but I enjoy it's spontaneity and free spirit.

This is called "Wuauquikuna -- Ode of Lightning Medicine Cloud".

I did another painting this evening, finished it on the second. It's a little hard to see because the background is so dark, but it was supposed to be that way. It's of Russell Means, and he's dead, so  it's almost a little ghost-like.

 

 

Or for the non-closeup:

 

 

Sorry for the slight glare, I've always sucked at taking pictures of my paintings.
