Grrrrroooooowwwl! “The Hunt”

I am very happy to be finished with this painting.  I mentioned below in my previous post that this was a definite challenge.  I kept the fur a little abstract, because I wanted to capture the feeling of boldness, courage, fear and action in this painting.  If I had detailed the fine hair like I have done in the past with a bunny or squirrel, the message would have been lost.  This painting is 16″ x 20″ and available.


“The Hunt”

“The Hunt” is a painting I am currently in the process of completing in the next day or so.  It is of a Leopard coming from behind the bushes, and getting ready to pounce on his prey.  I will admit, the spots, the position of this animal, and the leering look on his face have all been a very big challenge.   Stay tuned, this painting should be completed by Friday.

    


My Lemon Tree

 

 

You know, when you get an idea for a painting, it is very hard to sit still, concentrate or do anything else but think about that painting.  In this case, I’ve been thinking about painting my lemon tree for about two years.  It’s good to know, what I saw then, turned out the way I wanted, even after all of this time.   I hope you enjoy this, it was a pleasure and loads of fun to paint.  Especially because I could use my photos, and go out to my yard and see the real thing.

This painting is available on Ebay, and you may enter the auction site by clicking on the image.  Peace and prayers…
