This is another hen from my trip to the Safari Park Zoo in Natural Bridge. I just loved the fluffy feathers on her. They have such a great variety of animals, it is truly fun place to visit.
This is the painting I thought I would never finish and at times I thought I would just scrap it; but I think it is finally finished. I just love horses and thought it would be fun to do three on a large canvas, at times it really was fun. There are so many horses in this area, I had no problem finding models.
This is a painting I did of Smith Mountain Lake some time ago. I have not been able to do much painting these last two weeks because I have been having a fantastic time with my 10 year old granddaughter who was visiting us. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it, and I am also working on a very large (well for me it is very large) painting that hopefully I will finish and be able to post sometime in my lifetime. Now back to more painting.
The Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia is one of the prettiest areas of our country and then add a beautiful lake in those mountains and you couldn't ask for more. Painting water has always been something I am drawn to, but it also one of the biggest challenges for me.
