Another character with attitude, peeking around the frame! Freehand painting - oil on board. I really enjoyed painting the legs and beak of the raven #raven #ravensflock #oilpainting #bird #freehand #artwork
WIP - So difficult to photograph as paint reflecting. I'm working on a seagull in flight & all I am interested in is the back of the head and the shapes! I can not add anymore lighter tones ect, as the oils get to a stage where they 'skid' & you can not add subsequent layers.
I painted this robin as I loved his rotund body & skinny legs! Oil on board.
I need to finish off the wings, but will leave the painting to dry. I enjoyed painting the flowers & kept the painting in a high key, painting form with colour mixes, keeping away from a white tube!
Work in Progress......... woodpecker (oil on gesso board). Need to decide on the background and work up the tree ect. It will be 'make or break' tomorrow! lol!
What I do love is the colour changes on the head #workinprogress #woodpecker
Put away my trusty French Ultramarine & Burnt Umber and forced myself to paint form with colour high key! Was it fun? yep, actually enjoyed painting this little robin on a 6 x 6 inch @Ampersand_Art . Cobra Oils @RoyalTalens1899 .
Final painting (unframed) with work in progress
I overworked the previous hare of yesterday so wiped the whole painting down and started again. I decided the angle of the hares chin is what attracted me to paint it......must always have the 'end point in mind' before placing paint on board! #rabbit #hare #oilpainting
The challenge I gave myself was a painting of a puffin in flight! I love the way the puffin twisted it's body whilst keeping its head pefectly inline to view. Really loving Cobra oil paints @RoyalTalens1899 #cobra #oilpainting #puffin #bird #impressionism
My daughter has just given me a beautifully homemade box. Nestled inside was a cute metal wren she has made for me as a good luck charm for the next couple of days........... I'm gobsmacked!, it's stunning. #homemadeisbest #metal #sculpture
I worked on a raven today - they are very wise birds, but they appear to crouch down a lot, so the angle makes it more difficult to keep the 'eye' to the head witout falling out of the painting. Freehand acrylic on board
I've shown WIP - you will see I cropped it #ravens
