my first painting… “manta ray, laser eyes : killing a building”
So I’ve finally made my first painting. And I’m going to keep doing it. I had a vision of this and I got together with some friends to have a painting night. We were productive and we had a great time.
My first painting is called “manta ray, laser eyes : killing a building”. I didn’t come up with the “killing a building” part but Dave did and it fits well. Thanks Dave.
I don’t think it really needs any explanation. The manta ray has his motives. If you want to ask him, go ahead. But be warned.
I really enjoyed painting with acrylics. Now that I’ve got the stuff I want to try to do this at least every 2 weeks or so. Will the ocean attack on land again? We shall see…

Hi Kelly,
I found your site while researching manta rays. Your painting is awesome and inspired me to take a different angle for my own project. Thanks for the lightbulb!

I know no one has commented on your painting in a few yrs but, like someone else said, I found it while searcing for Manta Ray monsters. I love it!!!! I only wish I had a better pic of it straight on, since the pic here is a little askew. BUT! It’s great!
