Hello Ghostly Gobblins....

I'm Back.... Here is my first post with a few of my Oil Paintings I have made to be put into my HM Creation. The office has been converted out of two of my bedrooms and the entry was constructed to be as close to the "Stretching Room" As I possibly could. Here you will see 4 of my Oil Paintings Created for the Entry. These Stretching Paintings are HUGE!!! They span 9 foot High after being framed... In the near future I will be posting YouTube Videos on these Creations... I have tried, "with the difficult resolution photos to work with," To create these as close to original as I could... Hope you enjoy!!!

Hello Ghostly Friends...

My next Painting Project are "The Dueling Ghosts" It has been never asked of me to do photos of the progression of my paintings... "Well it has now"..... In the next weeks I will be photo graphing these paintings in there progression. Its not so much a DIY rather it will give all of you an idea of what it takes for me to do to create these paintings.

The photos below are photos of the Dueling Ghosts. Recreating these paintings are difficult for the reason that there is not many photos of the actual Haunted Mansion Paintings. These paintings I have created are of many different photographs I have collected off the internet. Since the design's of these paintings change, as new Disney animators update them, These that I have created "Could Be" a make up of several different creations. It is all I can do, Try and get as much detail in the photographs I find in order to extract all the details of the actual portraits. What ever I can't get I have to pretty much "Wing it"

The most difficult painting to recreate is "Quicksand" Stretching Portrait. There are really no photographs that show the detail of they're faces. As you enlarge the photos to extract detail they blur. What you see in my painting is as good as I could get from many different photographs...

As you can see in the photographs below these are pretty much what I have to go with... There is another photograph that I have, which I am sure are posters of the original, clearly not the coloring of the originals... They are much clearer, but, in all of the photographs I have collected there are not any photographs which show clear detail of the face and more important the eyes. This I have to recreate as well as I am able. Stay tune for more on this as they progress... Cheers...
