PASTURED

"Pastured", original oil painting, unframed, 6" X 6"


Animal paintings have always been a love of mine.  When I first started painting, I wanted to be another John Seery-Lester or Carl Brenders.  National Geographic magazine was my best friend.  Then I discovered portraits!  There is nothing like painting  facial expressions and striving for a likeness.

I still enjoy a return to the roots of my painting journey.  Pet portraits are great fun for me, but farm animals are just the BEST!  Those guys have attitude!

I had fun looking at all your paintings so far in the challenge. Love them all, but this sheep is my favorite for the wonderful colors and textures in the wool. Also like the bright background.
