"All Ears"

9" x 12" Pastel Original

I've always wanted to do a zebra as I find the contrasts technically and visually fun... However, technically it was very difficult. Following the hair patterns, I learned that the hairs entering the black stripe are white and the hairs exiting the stripe are black... That kept me on my toes!!

“Barn Owl”
Small Painting Series
4” x 5” Pastel Original

I have been asked to paint owls many times and I decided to start with a Barn Owl. I used to raise Persian Cats and the Barn Owls' face resembles the sweet expression of those cats. Though the eyes are always one of my favorite things to paint, I enjoyed the challenge of the intricacy of the feathers in this painting.

This is a mustang gelding, fully trained, and a great working horse. As I started my pre-sketch, I noticed that there was a reflection of the fence and myself in the reference photo that I took. That's why I'm calling it "Self Portrait".

We were recently on a photo shoot and came across this awesome dairy in Northern California. Because we will be attending the Red Bluff Bull and Gelding Sale, I wanted to paint something to take along. I couldn't resist #1207 as my subject for a couple of reasons: This is Pearl Harbor Day and my dad is a Pearl Harbor survivor and it is also the wedding anniversary of my dear friend in Cape Town, South Africa.
