Welcome to The Art of Nature

My subject matter is mainly wildlife. Occasionally I will also paint western/native american pieces. I work in oils. It is my intention with this blog to keep viewers updated on new pieces, post examples of my inspiration and occasionally show a new painting from start to finish! Just a reminder...All paintings, photographs of paintings and photographed images are protected by copyright. - Kathryn Ashcroft

Been out of town for about a week! Went to Yellowstone and Teton National Parks for some R & R and inspiration. Was able to get both!
Now onto the second dove. Again, I wanted to capture the softness of the feathers as well as the "glow". I started with the eye and face on this dove. Same technique as the first dove.
