We do wildlife art, landscape scenes, and taxidermy.
More importantly, anything on your walls should be what you like, not what someone says you should like.

I have to admit this thread has gone further than I thought it would. It also has had some expected responses based on similar discussions on other forums.
Waste of money
They suck
You got ripped off
Personally I like KRE8 and Godards whimsical style. KRE8 for his use of colors and Godard for his angel, devil images. I do not know if you noticed but when he paints a character as an angel the shadow is a devil. I find this interesting.
This was our first KRE8 and we now have 4 along with 4 Godards. This is my favorite Godard, It's Kraken.

Absolutely love that piece, think I mentioned it before but as much as I like the works Godard is known for, I really enjoyed the kraken ones. One I think they're cool as hell and love the way he uses color and secondly, they're just "different" than his other pieces and show he's not a "one trick pony".
Love the kraken you shared!

We do have some other artwork in framed painting reproductions but I don't know the artist. I should probably get some of those. I will see what else I can find. I don't think it should be limited to prints or oil on canvas.
Completely agree with you, doesn't matter to me (personally) who the artist is or what medium they used (oil on canvas, photography, whatever) just curious what folks personally chose to put on their walls. Could even been the hood of a 'Cuda for all I care... on second thought I'd really dig that too.

A few pieces my daughter drew. Yes, these are pencil, except the tiger, she pained him with acrylic.
I had to zoom in to pick up on the pencil aspect, those are nothing short of incredible. Your daughter is very talented, thanks for sharing 'em.
Patrick Nagel on the first one. Have a litho of his but not an original work. Some of is models were Playboy playmates.
Thank you. I agree, she has an amazing amount of talent. Plus she’s just a wonderful person. She starts vet school, at LSU, in August.
That's remarkable. I'm sure you're quite proud of her accomplishments (and you should be and is representative of her upbringing I'm sure) and wish her the absolute best this fall. Thanks again for sharing, those were nothing short of fantastic pieces.

Yes, I know which ship. I should have phrased it better!
Here is the highlight of my collection. A 40lb ebony elephant. Thank you safari joe in Kenya. Hit me up if you know him!

I would buy a print of that if you sold them. I am the farthest thing from an art critic but they should consider doing a cow/sheep/chicken series like that.

Thanks, I think she has moved past art, but I’ll let her know
The local art community almost had a mutiny when we told them it wasn’t for sale at the state show. Her art teacher said so many people wanted it.
Encourage her to keep doing that artwork, but for the JOY and Relaxation of it. Very few artists that I have known have done well during their lifetime without a second job. My mother was a teacher, her mentor a College Professor, a third was a hunting guide (carved decoys), and another owned/ran an art gallery.
Her work IS Awesome, but the best part is because She enjoys doing it.

She had gotten serious with her horses and it was time intensive, I’m sure she will venture back to it at one point in her life. He older sister does some drawing from time to time when she sits and realizes she has some free time on her hands
My oldest drew this one afternoon for Father’s Day a few years ago. Spent about 5-10 minutes on it probably
Girls and horses
. I should know since I married an honest to goodness Cow Girl (HSRCA) 
. I can’t win on the money side with both parents being semi-pro photographer, a gunsmith, and I’m married to a Horse Person. Welcome to being hobby poor because I can’t stand cheap junk.

A boat is a hole in the water you pour money into.Facts, these terds are spensive
A horse is a hole in the pasture you pour money into, but at least it is edible(ish).

My mom always said I was pretty autistic. I’ve dabbled in the sculpting arts, using marine tex as my medium. This is just one of my pieces, I call it “Cpt. Dickface yanks his crank”
