‘Little Friend’

image

8″×10″, pastel. Painted from a photo I took at my Dad’s place in Detroit, where I’m getting ready to travel to tommorrow! So forgive the mess. But it was fun to do and painting for me is a great way to relax. I’m looking forward to taking many more photos of the squirrel colonies when I get to Detroit. First stop will be the ‘peanut store’ for treats for my favorite subjects.

Experimenting with Color

‘Bear’, 9″×12″, acrylic. I was at Michael’s  the other day and saw a small set of fluorescent and metallic acrylics and decided to have a little fun! This is the result. I like the vibrancy I was able to achieve and I’m going to try this again with other animals.
