I’m really enjoying this color scheme, and all the character of the crow.This guy is standing in the grass looking out at the trees at the edge of the grassy field. It was beautiful and sunny.

Here’s a closer look at those sheep. I wanted to get the shape and feeling of them.

“Orcas Island II”
Approx. 8 in x 12 in, oil on wood

I’m thrilled with this one. I wanted to convey the lushness of the pasture and the enormity and density of the trees behind. There are several sheep, both adults and babies, basking in the sun in the pasture. This was a really beautiful spot on the island.

This is the largest painting I’ve finished recently. Right now I’m working on a couple more paintings in this series. It’s fun working so large for a change. I can really see the value of doing more large paintings, and also of doing more small paintings. I think one educated the other…
(I’ve changed one thing since taking this picture – I’ll post a revised image later.)

Painting of Geese Flying
This winter has been really mild, and geese have been flocking south for months. The flocks have been huge and talkative, too.
Here is one of the large paintings that I recently finished (20 in x 24 in). This one looks more like a ‘wildlife painting’ than the other paintings I’ve done, but really it is still a contemporary impressionist painting. I wanted to imply a big flock in motion without showing them all. Comments appreciated.

“Walrus in Blue”
6 x 9 inches, oil on canvas paper
I’m working on my colors this week – specifically my color harmony. Here’s a monochromatic painting of a mother and baby walrus. Here’s the closest thing to a monochromatic painting I’ve done before this, besides my abstract paintings.
By the way, I used Carol Marine’s suggestion of soaking my caked up paint brushes (which I had all but given up on) in Murphey’s Oil Soap overnight, and it worked well! Thanks Carol!
My painting arrived today and it is even better than I had hoped for! I love the way you mounted it in an offset shadow box frame~~ It sets off the painting perfectly!!
