Intensity.
I’ve finished… except for the usual several days away from the painting and coming back with fresh eyes. Then, only final adjustments will be made. This one was detail intensive, but I enjoyed the process. It will be shown in an upcoming art show.
The Piece Begins.
It all begins with an idea. Progress… although slow. I’ve been resting due to the fact that Lyme has surfaced again. Third time. Oy! It makes it hard to have energy to do anything. But God! The painting feeds my soul, so I will push on. Lots more to do.
Bringing It To Life.
It’s all about the eyes. They are, after all, the windows to the soul. They are always the first thing I paint or draw. I’m very close to finishing this piece, and I’ve enjoyed every minute spent with this awesome creature!
I’m getting closer to the end, but still tweaking details. I mean… that’s a lot of fur and I still need to glaze it. I’m excited to say that this piece and several more are going to be in an art show at my church in October. Must. Finish!
