Title: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 08, 2019, 03:06:47 AM Well I haven't sold any art recently, but I started painting with acrylics a while ago and wanted to share some of my results.

Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on December 08, 2019, 10:33:47 PM Thank you for sharing your artwork yet again! You are definitely improving. I like them all.
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 09, 2019, 01:30:16 PM Thanks :) just trying to let the force flow through me
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: PsychoSith on December 09, 2019, 02:03:46 PM These look great! Love the colours.
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on December 09, 2019, 06:12:00 PM Thanks :) just trying to let the force flow through me THE FORCE?!? Okay, light side points from now on it is! Just joking around. Your art is great! https://drive.google.com/file/d/10mA99O0e5w9rGTyykma_6Ebod0hCEcd_/view?usp=drivesdk Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 10, 2019, 01:15:21 PM :D on the topic of art I'm getting a tattoo on the 19th. I'm going to give my artist one of these pieces as a thank you. Assuming he does a great job, which I know he will. ;)

Assuming he does a great job, which I know he will. ;) I really want to make a joke about the mushroom house painting, by reminding you that mushrooms only grow in dark, places. I'll try to refrain!!! I hope your tat goes well. Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: MavRick on December 11, 2019, 12:39:52 AM :D on the topic of art I'm getting a tattoo on the 19th.

Eventually I will probably get one ;) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: TheDutchman on December 11, 2019, 08:08:47 PM Well I haven't sold any art recently, but I started painting with acrylics a while ago and wanted to share some of my results.

Thank you so much for sharing :) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 11, 2019, 10:23:50 PM Thank you :D
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Lord_S_Gray on December 12, 2019, 03:14:31 AM Nice work Solstice Lacer very colorful, would look great in like a kindergarten or pediatrician, or that's the vibe i get anyway to brighten the day, especially the one with the cute mushroom house!
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 12, 2019, 12:41:23 PM Thank you, what a nice thought :)
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: GeddaTheHutt on December 13, 2019, 01:44:02 PM Your artwork is amazing!
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 13, 2019, 08:34:30 PM Thanks :D

Those look amazing! What medium are you using? Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 22, 2019, 12:46:02 PM Thanks :) it's acrylic paint on canvas
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Cyclops942 on December 23, 2019, 02:56:55 AM Thanks :) it's acrylic paint on canvas Impressive! Maybe it’s the lighting, but some of these look 3D... are you using REALLY thick daubs of paint, so that there are noticeable variations in the thickness of the paint in places, almost like painting with frosting?Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 23, 2019, 04:15:50 AM Thanks :D I do indeed tend to layer my paint and build up thick and textured areas. I try to think about what is underneath or behind the things I'm painting
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on December 25, 2019, 12:50:30 AM How did your tattoo go?
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on December 27, 2019, 05:33:18 PM How did your tattoo go? Went great :) http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=43304.0 (http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=43304.0) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on January 01, 2020, 07:45:45 PM Two of my newest pieces:

Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on January 05, 2020, 08:47:57 PM Here's another one
(http://i.imgur.com/DFm6FO7.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on January 17, 2020, 12:33:00 PM So how does one buy a painting?
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on January 17, 2020, 01:14:10 PM Your lack of response makes me think. You are humbly, letting me know they are priceless?
I can see that... I still had to try! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on January 17, 2020, 01:18:00 PM ([url]http://i.imgur.com/3o1erBJ.jpg[/url]) I would pay money so that I could hang this on my wall and stare at it all day. Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on January 18, 2020, 02:49:54 AM Thank you for the kind words. :)
Nothing is priceless yet (I'm not famous/dead). Until then if anyone's interested just send me a private message ;) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on April 16, 2020, 11:08:29 PM Two latest art pieces:

I enjoy seeing your work, so keep them coming. One question though. When are you going to start making Diamond saves? I can just imagine how awesome fonts made by you would be! No pressure! Just wishing... Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: TheDutchman on April 18, 2020, 05:44:47 PM Two latest art pieces: ([url]http://i.imgur.com/YO2yKij.jpg[/url]) ([url]http://i.imgur.com/1kVgITa.jpg[/url]) Wow SL, those are wonderful to look at! I especially like your use of "cooler" colors and how they compliment each other :) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on April 25, 2020, 09:40:10 PM Thanks guys :) here's a new one
(http://i.imgur.com/lidU3dF.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on May 04, 2020, 08:00:24 PM (http://i.imgur.com/1pdeq9n.jpg)
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: PsychoSith on May 08, 2020, 06:07:45 PM ([url]http://i.imgur.com/1pdeq9n.jpg[/url]) Love the blues! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: TheDutchman on May 10, 2020, 12:46:43 PM Thanks guys :) here's a new one ([url]http://i.imgur.com/lidU3dF.jpg[/url]) ([url]http://i.imgur.com/1pdeq9n.jpg[/url]) Both of these are pleasing, both individually as well as if you consider them in linear conjunction: "Dusk-> Night" Thank you for sharing SL :) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on June 05, 2020, 08:56:06 PM Thanks for the compliments :)
Here is more recent work (http://i.imgur.com/Er4VqLV.jpg) (http://i.imgur.com/WBqREoR.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: HesaHeart on June 05, 2020, 09:31:43 PM Nice work!! +point
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: TheDutchman on June 06, 2020, 04:27:14 PM Thanks for the compliments :) Here is more recent work ([url]http://i.imgur.com/Er4VqLV.jpg[/url]) ([url]http://i.imgur.com/WBqREoR.jpg[/url]) I like both but the top piece REALLY reminds me of the three-moon pantheon of the Dragonlance Saga (Yes, white Solinari is supposed to be larger than red Lunitari, but the with smallest, black Nuitari...well, it very much evokes that scene for me ;)) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Cyclops942 on June 06, 2020, 06:34:36 PM I like both but the top piece REALLY reminds me of the three-moon pantheon of the Dragonlance Saga (Yes, white Solinari is supposed to be larger than red Lunitari, but the with smallest, black Nuitari...well, it very much evokes that scene for me ;)) Wow... I haven’t read the Dragonolance Saga in 30 years... you’re bringing back some memories, TheDutchman! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: TheDutchman on June 08, 2020, 07:30:57 PM Wow... I haven’t read the Dragonolance Saga in 30 years... you’re bringing back some memories, TheDutchman! It was a great series (especially for that time of my life) and I really enjoyed it...well at least for the books up to "Dragons of Summer Flame." After that, I felt that the quality took a nosedive. But, yeah, fond memories :D Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on July 28, 2020, 02:01:38 PM A recent painting
(http://i.imgur.com/89Yz9a5.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: HesaHeart on July 28, 2020, 03:02:13 PM A recent painting ([url]http://i.imgur.com/89Yz9a5.jpg[/url]) Oh i like that !! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: For Tyeth on July 28, 2020, 09:51:45 PM A recent painting ([url]http://i.imgur.com/89Yz9a5.jpg[/url]) Hi Solstice, really liking this picture! I have recently been watching Bob Ross' Joy of Painting and seeing the highlight colour and texture you achieved on your mountains remind me of his mountain landscape paintings - yet you're working in different mediums! (The way the highlight blends to shadow is spot on) points will be sent over the next day or two. Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on July 29, 2020, 12:35:15 AM Thanks very much :) Bob Ross is an art hero of mine so I'm very flattered
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on August 11, 2020, 05:12:55 PM Another recent painting
(http://i.imgur.com/jNaUAsy.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Cyclops942 on August 11, 2020, 05:43:28 PM Stupid question, I guess, but I can’t learn if I don’t admit I don’t already know...
Is this style pointillism, or some modified form of it? Is it inspired by it? Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on August 11, 2020, 06:06:39 PM Not a stupid question. :) I guess it's somewhere between impressionist and true pointillism. Definitely inspired by, but I don't adhere to a particular style
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on August 12, 2020, 07:13:15 PM This one is painted on wood
(http://i.imgur.com/XKtp1YL.jpg) This is on canvas (http://i.imgur.com/eYhayoR.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Infinit01 on August 13, 2020, 12:56:48 PM A recent painting ([url]http://i.imgur.com/89Yz9a5.jpg[/url]) Love it! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on August 13, 2020, 11:57:14 PM This one is painted on wood ([url]http://i.imgur.com/XKtp1YL.jpg[/url]) I like all your new paintings! This one though I really like. Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on August 14, 2020, 05:40:36 PM Thanks all for the compliments :)
(http://i.imgur.com/ioufes2.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Cyclops942 on August 14, 2020, 07:45:55 PM Dang... in addition to being good at this, you’re prolific, too!
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: For Tyeth on August 14, 2020, 10:50:52 PM Thanks all for the compliments :) ([url]http://i.imgur.com/ioufes2.jpg[/url]) Hi Solstice, I gotta say I love this picture too. And I think I may have a suitable title if you haven't named it already...how about "Morning Glory", as in the famous cloud formation? Thanks for sharing your talents. Darkside point on the way. Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on August 23, 2020, 03:55:43 PM Did another black hole piece
(http://i.imgur.com/mAf0dbW.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on September 12, 2020, 05:25:24 PM (http://i.imgur.com/m9Gh32Q.jpg)
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: TheDutchman on September 14, 2020, 06:28:08 PM Did another black hole piece ([url]http://i.imgur.com/mAf0dbW.jpg[/url]) ([url]http://i.imgur.com/m9Gh32Q.jpg[/url]) Ever since I was a kid, I've loved astronomy and Egyptology, SO seeing both of these pieces really resonate to me on a personal level :) You know, both are visually appealing for the same reason (well, at least to me :P): the geometry of the polygons are simply wonderful^^ Thanks for sharing, SL! Point! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on February 11, 2021, 02:28:08 PM A belated thank you Dutchman :)
Here's a larger piece I've been working on for a while: (http://i.imgur.com/Ti40tNe.jpg) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: DarthRondoudou on February 11, 2021, 02:53:52 PM A belated thank you Dutchman :) Here's a larger piece I've been working on for a while: ([url]http://i.imgur.com/Ti40tNe.jpg[/url]) Oh! I like it! So peaceful! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: DarthProdigal on February 11, 2021, 08:23:43 PM I glanced through your whole assembled gallery here, I do have a particular fondness for some pieces in the bunch. To the point I'd enjoy seeing a few on my own walls. I appreciate that your style has been made more so your own. And you do seem to truly enjoy and be passionate about your work which is what matters. It's all rather enjoyable to see, thanks for posting it all.
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on February 12, 2021, 01:07:14 PM Thank you both :)
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: DarthRondoudou on February 12, 2021, 02:21:11 PM I went through the thread. Some beautiful things for sure!
And I can't help but think that a black hole + pyramid one would be awesome! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: DarthProdigal on February 12, 2021, 06:35:46 PM I went through the thread. Some beautiful things for sure! And I can't help but think that a black hole + pyramid one would be awesome! Oh yeah, several of the paintings make me think of worlds (or views standing on worlds) that could be in SWU. Reminds me of some of my favorite moments from playing No Man's Sky or Mass Effect. That "standing on some alien planet" staring into uncharted stars... Very evocative. Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: PsychoSith on February 19, 2021, 05:28:29 AM Your art is remarkably calming and easy on the eyes. Point for that alone.
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: TheDutchman on March 12, 2021, 06:24:57 PM A belated thank you Dutchman :) Here's a larger piece I've been working on for a while: ([url]http://i.imgur.com/Ti40tNe.jpg[/url]) Beautiful! And no problem at all; Real Life has been getting in the way of my own writing ;) What are the dimensions of that painting? It looks like 36" x 24" (which is a sizable canvas^^). Your art is remarkably calming and easy on the eyes. Point for that alone. This^^ Oh so much :) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on March 13, 2021, 06:55:37 PM Thanks :) I believe it is 36x24. One of my larger pieces
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: DarthRondoudou on March 13, 2021, 07:15:26 PM I love it =)

I especially like the iguana in the foreground :) Hopefully we'll see more soon! Point! Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Beeblebrox on May 01, 2021, 06:28:52 AM New art ([url]http://i.imgur.com/a0cOFHv.jpg[/url]) I’m not an art critic but this is really good stuff. It gives me a very surreal and chilled vibe. Reminds me of some of my more ”adventurous” teenage experiences. :) -1 Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: Solstice Lacer on May 09, 2021, 12:31:07 AM Thank you both :)
Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on October 02, 2021, 02:31:28 PM Thanks again for the painting.

([url]http://i.imgur.com/WdCgXn7.jpg[/url]) I need a better camera ([url]http://i.imgur.com/QLoIZ21.jpg[/url]) Oh, WOW! That looks AMAZING! Thanks to both SL for painting that piece and KS for sharing it with us! Points for you both :) Title: Re: Showing off some art Post by: KaiserSosay on November 02, 2021, 06:04:46 PM I really wish my final picture came out better. The light shifting from the lava lamp makes her painting look like it is moving too! It's a really cool effect that I completely failed to capture in my photo. It is very hypnotic and has helped me sleep on more than one occasion.
I'm very grateful for the painting! I can't thank Solstice enough. |
