Black Lab

"Black Lab" 5 x 7 inch oil on panel

I have fallen behind on my blog, so I'll try and get caught back up. I had a very productive weekend and completed a few small pieces. Here is one of them.

New Duck Collection

"Northern Pintail" - 5.5 x 8.5 watercolor on paper

I've not worked on any of the studio projects this week but I have started a collection of ducks.
Playing around with watercolors.
You can see the rest of the collection on my website at www.WildlifeAndSportingArt.com

I plan on getting back on the studio paintings tomorrow.
Tonight we are going to the Weimeraner Rescue Foundations annual fundraiser, "The 2010 Weim and Cheese" where the Weimeraner painting will be auctioned off.
I'll post pictures of the event and the results.

Making Waves

Making Waves - 5 x 7 oil on panel

I framed this guy today.

Almost Finished

It's down hill from here.
I'll let this dry for a few days then come back with a a few touch ups and details.
I hope these guys were tired after I chased them for over an hour to get a good reference photo.

One to Go

I went ahead and knocked out the hen this morning before going to work.
So now I have my 70's music on and after checking email I'll work on the drake.

On the easle

I forgot to get a photo of the initial drawing before I started painting so here is the first look.
I've got the base of the water down and will start on the ducks tonight when I get home from work.
I do most of my painting when I get home.
I work evening shift at the Homewood Police Department so painting doesn't start until 11:00 pm.
I sit in my studio and listen to sky fm 70's on the computer and paint until about 2 or 3 am.
It's my time.

Afternoon Swim

I took several pictures today and I think this is what I will use for my next painting.

It's going to be an 8 x 10 so it should be done by Wednesday.... It has to be done by Wednesday as it's one of my entries into this years Alabama Wildlife Federation Art Show.

The deadline is on the 15th.

Nothing like waiting until the last minute.
