A Waste of Paint

Not really.  I'd like to think these aren't a waste of paint =)  (But I do love that song.)  These are a few paintings I've been working on these past few weeks for Kent State's Creative Arts Festival in April.  They are DEFINITELY still works in progress, but they are almost done and wanted to share them.  I really like working with different textures, thinned out washes of paint with chunky strokes with my palette knife.  I haven't completed a painting since high school so I am rather proud of these, even though I am just getting back into the swing of things.  All are oil on canvas.
