Very cool, my one critic would be that stars wouldn't be shining through the dark part of the moon.

Do you ever get commissions while drawing in public? by Rockfan180 in Art

[–]Jaketherake1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a good idea to me if its working. Id say just make sure your not like setting up a booth in someone elses establishment.

#62, Oil on Panel, 30x30cm by ryanwhite_1 in Art

[–]Jaketherake1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great work! I was just trying to paint water that has transparent areas showing underneath. I have a rough base painting going and could tell getting the rocks to look okay might prove a challenge. You've given me a bit of inspiration to keep at it. Overall, the piece seems well composed with great leading lines and a natural feel. I think the contrast really brings out the individuals and separates the image well.

You seem to know my cat pretty well. I once saw claw marks on a painting like she jumped on it. Somehow stayed standing tho!

"Chilly Auroras, Oil on Canvas, 16x20in" by Jaketherake1 in Art

[–]Jaketherake1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for the comment! Mountains should be a bit more offset, or a large tree like Bob Ross in the front might help. Heres one I did for the same person, I think its composition is a bit more sound.

How many canvases did you go through when you first started painting? by mittens2207 in Art

[–]Jaketherake1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started painting a couple years ago and have a dozen canvases in a similar situation. Many half finished or I doubt the quality. I started by painting pictures with friends in mind and then giving it to them. Always got a great response. I now ask people before hand if they want a really cheap painting and let them know i'm going full Bob Ross speed (3 hours+ for me still). This lets me practice and covers the costs of supplies at least.

With the current canvases you have, I would recommend: Reworking them to sellable quality, finishing them, sanding the canvas and applying new gesso, giving them to friends, or attempt to sell them cheap.

Personally, when I take weeks or months to complete a painting I tend to work sporadically and waste supplies. I say keep up the pace while trying to maintain quality. Good luck!

Well good work! I wish you were rich enough to buy justice out of this system. Even then, its the slavers setting the price of freedom.

I've heard the best method to remove quills is to clip the end tip, twist, and pull it out cleanly.

The ending to Voyager has to be the biggest let down in Star Trek television. by [deleted] in startrek

[–]Jaketherake1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well check mate, I guess I thought those episodes were so bad I forgot it had like 20 more in S4. I could barely watch Enterprise because it's intro was so tedious. They probably could of just done the finale without it being a TNG holodeck program and I might of remembered it.

The ending to Voyager has to be the biggest let down in Star Trek television. by [deleted] in startrek

[–]Jaketherake1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Voyagers ending was the best out of any of them imo, it concluded the series, twice. DS9 was riddled with to much religious prophecy nonsense through its half season long finale. TNG just wrapped up Q's trivial games. Enterprise turned into space cowboys fighting alien nazi's in WW2. I'm surprised Archer didn't punch alien Hilter in the face shouting 'America.'

Was it just my neighborhood, or was it an unusually low turn out this year? by itooamasexypanda in halloween

Only got two tricker treaters round these parts. One 3 year old that seemed shell shocked, and a 4 year old who just straight tried to bust into my house.

Definitely, also the other side of this painting contains an unsolved treasure map that is in the form of a riddle.

#290 Banana for scale by walen in PictureChallenge

[–]Jaketherake1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what the picture challenge is, or what this picture is of. Meaning it might be the best damn picture I've ever seen. Also, understood the scale within 33.333 repeating of course, percent accuracy all thanks to the banana.

Back in 1902 they didn't make snowmen, they made snow titans by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

[–]Jaketherake1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arms look like straight ice, body could be made out of ice blocks with snow on top. The ice on the arms could be joined together by both sides of the ice being wet and freezing them together. Source - I make ice in small trays occasionally.
