Title: Jade's Desert
Date: Fall 1995
Size: 11" x 14"
Material: Thin Canvas Board
Medium: Wet - Acrylic Paint
An acrylic painting I did for my 8th grade art class on a piece of used canvas board, circa 1995. The desert landscape can be recognized as one of the backgrounds from the fighting game Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. Not too bad I think, for my first ever painting. Featured in one of the local annual student art shows during that year, which was kinda cool at the time.
Very beautiful. I love deserts in general, and I love the way you painted this one.
One thing though, the wall just before the desert... It lacks perspective, maybe?
Anyway... Yeah, very nice. ^_^

Perspective? Perhaps, but I was copying it directly from the game and it didn't look any different. It was my first attempt at a painting, so if anything looks odd I think I can get a pass on this one.
Thanks for your comments!

hey- - coming from a HUGE MK fan as myself - - this piece is amazing!! Outstanding !! Excellent!! Surperb!! Well Done!!
I think that the desert scene is , by far , one of the best - - if not THE BEST - - backgrounds in the history of MK. And you've faithfully recreated it here. Very nicely done!!

I once had a lemonade stand. I sold the first glass for 50¢, then I sold the second glass for 5$. It contained the antidote.

Some people are like Slinkies; not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
such people include spammers, flamers, and art thieves.
