I am not quite back to painting yet but wanted to give you a heads up on one of the pieces I started before my surgery.
The canvas was prepared in the usual fashion, the composition was done using a number of different photos that I took of one of my favorite subjects, the Canada Goose.
These four geese will not be the main subject of the piece, I will show you that part in a future post, these are painted quite quickly, using very little detail. They will be an important part of the painting though, giving it depth.
I haven't decided what the final landscape part of this piece will look like yet, there will be water though. I admit that water does cause me a little stress, it is difficult to get it looking right, but I love a good challenge.
Stay tuned with me as we follow this piece through to completion!
