April 2017

Spring has sprung, here in South Texas anyway! Though I'm packing the coat and sweaters for my Durango, CO workshop this weekend (still 2 spaces available by the way! Scroll down for info...)

Sheep Schemes

My newest large animal painting, and the fourth in my large sheep series. This one survived the busy weekend at the Bayou City Art Festival, and is still available!

See shots of my entire process, including the preliminary photo-composition and the underpainting, on my blog!
