Could Been Worse Painting

My friend who I done the painting " Could have been worse" together got myself interested in painting. I haven't drawn anything since I was I young boy and never had any training in painting or ever painted anything before. Now in my late 30's and because of my friends influence I started to enjoy and discover the world of art. All the paintings I have done were started Oct 2011 and I painted all my art, I guess hap-hassidly how I thought it should be done with no advice trying teach myself how do I get this or that effect. I've only been painting for just over one month and trying to discover myself as a painter, so I paint what ever comes in my head. My friend has their own profile on here and thought it be good idea for myself set profile up so I may be able t get comments and any critiguing you can offer.
