Fluffy Chickens

Yup, it's a farm painting. Apologies for not very many beginning shots. I did all in the first pic in one day. I was on a roll in (for me) the new wet on wet style. 



Final product:

Ascent

This is the painting I was working on at the same time as Bivouac. I'll be honest, it was a slog.
It started out as a snowy pic, but I thought that might end up being too visually boring. 


So I put it through a few iterations.
With green trees.



With green trees and a lake.


With white, snowy trees and pink clouds. Ah, those pink clouds. Ugh. Terrible. 


After an evening of staring at this painting, wanting to break the canvas board over my knee, I found the painting I wanted to do the whole time. 



The final product:


Ascent

Bivouac

As I was working on another painting, upcoming to the blog shortly, I began a painting that takes place at night. This stands as a departure from my usual fare, especially the one I was working on in tandem with this one. 


It went along quickly from the beginning point. I had it completed in a couple of days instead of my usual couple of weeks. 


Finished product:


Bivouac
24"x18" 
Oil on Canvas Board
Black aluminum framed price $85
