A Feather in my Cap - work in progress

 

Its funny how when you look at a work on the computer you can see all the things that need to be altered...

 

Really happy with the progress on A Feather in my Cap so far.. I made a good start on the horse.. though still quite a lot to do on its head and perhaps the direction of that rump curve as well

 

I blocked in the saddle cloth to give me an idea of where the darks fall on the horses body underneath that saddle colth

A Feather in my Cap - work in progress

After two weeks out of the studio its so nice to be back and back in full swing.

A Feather in my Cap .. is another of the pastel pieces I will be taking to Arizona with me...

This morning has been spent working on the girls hat, hair and shirt...

The hat and hair will need a few more lights and Im debating if the sleeve will need to be thinned down a little..

Valarie Wolf: Latest Painting

Just finished this one-- an 8"x10" oil.  I had fun mixing color/hue changes. I actually enjoyed painting the subtle changes in the concrete areas of the background.  I used some pretty vibrant greens for the trees, found they were too bright and then glazed over them a bit to tone them down.

62nd Annual Texas Watercolor Society Exhibit. “Knot Listening” Equine, Western Watercolor by Debbie Flood

The 62nd Annual Texas Watercolor Society Juried Exhibition June 4th-June 30, 2011 at the

     San Antonio Art League & Museum                      

      130 King William Street, San Antonio, TX.

               Juried by Don Getz A.W.S.

My Watercolor Knot listening was one of 50 paintings juried into the National Exhibit. 348 paintings were submitted by artists from across the Country.
I was also invited to Join the Texas Watercolor Society Membership, which I graciously did.

It feels pretty exciting to be exhibiting with some of the most wonderful Watercolor Artists of our time and to be juried into this exhibit by the great Don Getz, a signature member of the American Watercolor Society.

If you are in the San Antonio Texas area, I do hope you can find some time this month to stop in and see the exhibit.
