ORIGINAL PAINTING OF SHEPHERD AND FLOCK

 
Hey Friends,  Posting a few extras today, just to let you know I've had a good time painting while being snowed in !
Almost all have been painted on gessoed mat board or Terra Skin (paper made from stone-no trees!) so they can be matted and shrink wrapped for a flip bin at Goose Creek in Bedford, Va.
The sheep are in EBAY - Click Here.

 
These will go to Goose Creek for a while.

 
If they don't sell there, I may save for the Lynchburg Festival.



 
I'm trying as hard as I know how to change my method of painting.  I want to be (always have) looser, more impressionistic.  It will take a long time I'm afraid.

 
It's just my nature to be nit picky with details.  I'm afraid people won't understand or be able to tell what my subject is.  I think if I explain for them, they will get it.
The worst habit an artist can have.
 
Thanks for stopping in.
 
Travel safely.

New Auction and more Windy Plein Aire

 
Hey Friends,  Been a little while.  I'm still here and going strong.  Out there with the other members of the Double Line Painters in Salem today.
But first go check out this flock for auction on EBAY.

 
Here is the view we had this morning at Salem Terrace @ Harrogate.  Beautiful day after all the poo poo reports from the weather men.  The clouds were really moving on.

 
Here is the little sketch I finished before we had to break for lunch.  Plein Air is hard work.
We, the DLP's, will be painting, or making cards, next week, Wed. the 12th, at 2nd Helpings Gallery on Williamson Rd. from about 10:30 til 1.
We would love for you to come by and chat.  Take a tour through this impressive little gallery.
 
Til then - Happy Trails
