What to paint?

Well im not sure but I have a question for you......Ive never really painted before but its something i would like to try...what should i get to start and what is simple enough to start with?


Ps. I sketch a bit and I find that sketching the natural curves of ones body is quite fulfilling...have you tried painting something like this before it may work out for you..

Hallo Hari

I wunder if you could tell me if fotofilter is like Photoshop where ooyou need af foto or something or can you just du things from scratch??

Bye Salivrah

many thanks, it's really kind of you~

You can paint a mandala.

Go abstract. Invent your own style of 'automatic painting'. Paint straight from your subconscious. Don't think. Just paint. It will look a mess at first but if you can lower your inner critic (fuck it, destroy him altogether) for a little while, you should start to see the merits. The beauty and purity of form and formlessness. Things you pick up from doing this for a while will help your normal work immensely. Try it, you may find it incredibly freeing

My question is have any of you painted some kind of object that might be fun for me to try? Or maybe have any ideas for me that you personally had a lot of fun painting and recreating? I'd love any input, thanks!

if you'd like to see the kind of things that i do;

and if my stuff doesn't interest or inspire, i'm sure at least some among the thousands of others on there will.
