Oil on canvas- what do you think?

[dark heart]

Hi! i made this blue tiger today i used three colors, cool blue, white and black.

this is my first oil on canvas so go easy, i still think it's a pretty good effort for a 14 year old, it took me roughly 3 hours to make this. today i learned that i need to be more patient! anyway feel free to comment,
thanks.

I looked at it in your gallery in your comment, it looks pretty nice, like how its all blue and such

Very nice for a first. I would suggest some more contrast to really bring the tiger out from the background. I´m currently doing oils in my art class too, so I know how hard they are to work with.

yay! comments! thanks, and Bruce.lee; yeah, the camera made it look a little bland, in real life it looks brighter, but i don't really like to do too much black,
if it smudges it's really hard to fix
