First oil painting

This is the first oil painting I ever did. It was back in 1984. I was digging through storage and found it. I thought it would be neat to show.

Here is another picture I did around the same time of a double lightning strike. I thought it was pretty cool at the time.LOL
This picture of the lightning came out like crap. You cant even see the true shape of the clouds. I will try to retake the picture and repost it.

BVanKirk, I use what I have these days for taxidermy and carving. Although I still paint every now and again for my customers. I tell you what though, you come up with an idea and I will paint it and post it. And we will see how it comes out. What do you think?
