an oil painting of a piece of semi-burnt toast resting on tinfoil. the majority of the painting is photo-realistic, with think globs of red paint smeared across the bread to mimic the look of jam.

A vibrant oil painting of Newman from Seinfeld. The scene is from season 7 episode 1, where Newman is sitting in a chair, looking cunning and menacing. The lighting is dramatic and the painting further exaggerates this - making Newman's skin a bright red colour, the stripes on his shirt jump out in red, teal, blue and purple. With his elbow perched on the arm of the chair, he holds a cigarette in his right hand. he looks to his right with a sneer, mouth slightly ajar in mid-sentence. Behind his head is a poster of food and to his left, his mail hat hangs on the wall.

A photo-realistic oil painting of a room in an abandoned house. The underpainting was orange, and there are outlines and tinges of this colour seeping through in some areas. The wall is a robin’s egg blue and the floor is an olive green. In the centre of the room is an antique side table, it has a white towel draped over it. The floor has old wallpaper and fabric scattered about

A photo-realistic painting of a frog preserved in a jar. The entire painting is in a variety of green hues. the frog sits at the bottom of a mason jar. the frog is a muddy olive green colour, while the liquid is a brighter olive green. the light source is coming from the left side; the background is a softer forest green, going from light to dark as it travels left to right.

an oil painting of an abandoned couch. thick layers of paint protrude off of the canvas, depicting the decrepit cushions as stuffing pours from the holes.

an oil painting of a wedding portrait. A woman, wearing a white dress, sits on a chair on the left holding a bouquet of red roses tied with a green ribbon. A man sits next to her, on the right, with his arm around her. He wears a light blue shirt. They both have brown hair and he has an orange beard. The rest of the painting is a combination of red/orange and green hues.
