Having achieved some satisfcatorily results with pencil portrait, I began experimenting with painting scenaries with poster colours. Later on, I progressed to acrylic. I thought of moving on to oil painting from there, but I thought oil painting would be too messy.
Here are a few of the more satisfying poster and arylic painting I have done – many moons ago. I think not bad for a self-taught artist.
This is my personal favourite. A scene from a calendar. (acrylic)
This is poster colour. One of my earlier experiments.
Another acrylic scene from a calendar.
Another...
And another...
Another experiment - do you see a man in a chair?

Hi @siamcat Thank you for the invite. Unfortunately, I am not the most creative person. My paintings were from many years ago. And I was just playing around, passing time. I am not active with arts now. However, I have taken a note of artisteem.com and should I decide to spend more time on creating artworks, I will join you. Once again, thank you for your invite. Best wishes.

Thank you Jon. At the moment, there too many distractions. Besides, painting takes up too much time and space. But you never know, maybe I will have a change of heart when I wake up tomorrow. :-)

howdy @janton Thank you for your kind words. I am glad you like the painting of the man in the chair. That was an earlier, and experimental work too.
In life, we learn something new every day. And the knowledge make us wiser, and stronger and better able to cope with what life throw at us.
