Oh well, it is a good excuse to paint more winter scenes!
Here is my latest, Winter Solitude. It is a palette knife painting.

Using a deer photo reference from wetcanvas.com, I began this painting knowing that I had another vision for what the background would be for this deer. In the past I have had trouble breaking away from photo reference and making my own feelings come out. I felt I needed that security blanket as I painted. So with this painting I kept singing How Majestic Is Your Name In All the Earth over and over in my head. I relaxed and let the background "happen." I am pleased with the result.

Vicky,
ReplyDeleteIt is good to see you are keeping busy with the beautiful works of art you create. I remember that 2008 chalk art class with Matt Bowman. I see God is continuing to use you and your husband in getting the gospel out. Keep up the good work and allowing us to enjoy the results!
