Never Quit Searching

I finally got to paint this from my digital manipulation, Don’t Give Up Searching . I’m so pleased with the result. I used a few different textures and oil paint and made the eye brown rather then blue so that the image was unified in pallet to suit a college project so that I could paint this particular piece without abandoning duty.

Never Quit Searching belongs to the following groups:

All Things Orange, Art Inspired by Dreams, Colour Me Red!, In the Moment, Lesbian and Bi-Women's Art, Masterpiece: Art, Mixed Media, Painters In Modern Times, Rusty, Crusty and Falling to Bits, Surrealism, WA Red Bubbles and Yellow Fever

Sensational work
Stacey Hatton, 6 months ago

Incredible. You’ve created a real sense of 3D. The texture and tonal shading is brilliant. I love the strength of the painting in contrast with the digital version. And I think the brown eye actually works better.

increadible texture. i’m speechless as to how good this is. instant favorite. bravo.
hatefueled, 6 months ago

Wow thanks guys! It means a lot to get that kind of feedback. Paul, this one is about 35cm by 50 but I’d have to measure it next time I’m at tafe where it’s drying to get the exact measurements. I do know its at least 50 on it’s longest axis though because the lecturer requested that as a minimum.

Marie Magnusson, 6 months ago

absolutely brilliant, I like the brown eye better and the texture is fantastic. very strong message together with the title, I think the eye has a very sad expression though, like she has almost given up. very impressive 3Deffect
hatefueled, 6 months ago

yes, I tried changing the direction of the eye from looking up into the sky to more across and into the distance.
thank you!

I’ve been looking through your work for the past half and hour and i’m absolutely awestruck. Your various styles are each beautifully realized and each piece tells its own story…

All of your work is amazing and deserves its own comment, however i have to say this is my favourite. Its wonderful and shows how a little more time and care can make an excellent piece outstanding. Sorry to ramble on, but i’m so impressed with your talent! Really well done.

Astonishing detail, especially with the expression in the eye. Beautifully highlighted, amid the coarse oil paste textures. A superb combination.
The strong, powerful orange-red hues, make this a visually striking piece!
