The Red Heads are Coming!

It took alot longer than I anticipated, but I have finished the painting of the Sandhill Cranes! I really enjoyed creating this piece; it is quite large, 12-3/4 x 18! The coloring of these birds made them wonderful to create, with their red and white faces, and gray plumage covered in rust (from the dirt!). I really had fun with this one; of course, I have fun with every painting I do. My next project is a commission piece of a dog, a chow/schnauzer mix (wow, I can hardly wait!), but it is small, only 8 x 10, so I should finish it quickly. Of course, my Saturday is shot, as I will be babysitting my grandkids for the day. I should get the photos of the commission tomorrow or the next day, and as I have arranged my regular J-O-B schedule to get half a day on Fridays off, I should be able to finish the portrait by Monday or Tuesday next week. My next wildlife painting will be of a lioness. I am very much looking forward to creating her!

Beautiful Borzoi

Hey, just finished the Borzoi portrait that I will be listing on eBay this evening. I am posting it here so that if anyone is interested, just visit on eBay and see for yourself how beautiful this portrait really is! Next on my agenda: Sand Hill Cranes for the wildlife show!

Flying High

Well, I didn't get the photo I wanted of the tern I recently started, but the finished product is almost done! I will post it as soon as it is finished, probably tomorrow. I have been so busy trying to get artwork done for the upcoming show that I have not been able to get anything done for my eBay sales, but I will be starting a new portrait after I finish the tern painting. Well, I will get busy on my tern painting so that I can start on the Borzoi I am planning.
