Cameron - Highland Cow

 Sketched out read to paint on a 60 x 50 cm Canvas

First lot of blocking in going on
- I forgot how much paint big canvasses take
but already starting to have the foundations of a great painting

Dry brushing the background
My goal to make it look misty & to keep Cameron
very much in the fore front.

I had put in about 9 hours at this point
happy with the bckground, put detail into the fending
now to make Cameron come to life

Finished in all his hairy, horniness!

Adore him!

A View Of Salisbury Cathedral

Having lived near Salisbury many years, I have to say I really adore salisbury cathedral
not so much up close & personal but from a distance across the water meadows
It spire often peaks out of the city haze.

Having never painted it before & this subject not my usual one
I thought I would give it a try

A stunning bright view of Salisbury Cathedral through a garden archway, on a crisp frosty morning.
Mist rising on the water meadows and the sun's golden light hitting the frost crisp grasses

"Oink"
Acrylics on Canvas

Commission painting from reference photo

I love his cute eyes
I decided to use bright colours on this commission
In the hope it would bring out the joy & happiness that pigs hold.

I wasn't really happy with the plain right hand side so
I added some spring blossom

City News

First layers going down, the news paper is a reproduction
prince of a Victorian print

City News

Acrylics on Canvas
12 x 31.5"
I have had this item playing around in my head while
I would love to go a little more while with it & if I ever paint it again
I will try to go another step out of my comfort zone.
Art is like life, each new step you take you learn a little more.

I tried this painting on a smaller scale, which we named capitol news.
I got really good feedback from it & that gave me the confidence to go a bit bigger
& bolder

Still working on the paint layers, it took roughly
3 weeks to produce this painting
waiting for bits to dry before proceeding.

Photo without flash, again waiting for a layer to dry
before proceeding

------------------------------

Finished painting

I have painted round the sides so it doesn't require
framing

close up of buildings, you can just about read the
Victorian print articles

Working with mixed media is fun & you can get some
really interesting pieces of work

The painting will be finished with a final layer of varnish
to protect from dust & damp
before being ready for sale.
