Default first three, done from photos

hello!
i´m in a rush as always, so i won´t write long.
these three new ones are done from photos, the second is a bit bigger than the other two, which are approx. 11 x 17 cm, and burned on different wood. let me hear what you think!

1st
my parents dogs, going to be a present for my dad


2nd one,
as i started this one i desided to make it rougher, because of the way this wood burns. don´t know what wood it is.


3rd,
well, this is just the third one. nothing more to say.

oh! well yes! the third was a pain in the *** to get copied, cause our printer prints
pictures too dark, like a piece of ****. i had to make three different prints, of the dog. one thing is also that the dog is dark coloured. yep.

thanks for interest,

Thanks, looking at these bigger pictures now, all i see are mistakes. It's overwhelming how one can be proud at a moment, and in the next moment the opposite feeling strikes. Yes i like them. But... Well. I have to remember that it's a long road, and stay humble.

Great burnings! Show depth and detail in all of them. You might not have an exact copy of your photo on the boards, but, then art is taking a reference and making it into what you see and feel. If you want the photo, blow it up and pass it around. I like the burnings and it is something you did not Kodak. Keep up the good work! Jim B

I really like the work.. nice detail. I think seeing one mistakes is part of being and artist it make us better at what we do. and like you said it keeps us humble.for me the two hardest thing in doing art work is seeing my mistakes(that most can't see but me) and pricing of my work(thank god for my wife.if it was up to me.. and i'm getting better i would almost give things away.. just so i could get back to my comfort zone working on my art..keep up the great work..
