I was on our deck looking for the subject of my next painting. I looked up and thought the trees made a nice frame for the sky, so decided that would be it, and here it is! And recently I got metallic, shimmery watercolor paint so used that in this painting. You can see light reflecting off of some of the leaves.
I was painting flowers for practice and had so much fun painting the clover, I decided to make a painting of it. Bees seemed a natural fit.
I started this painting two or three times with just trees, but it needed something more. So I tried another painting and added a squirrel. It is a more interesting painting, but the squirrel isn’t in the thought.
I’m putting this up on Veteran’s Day to thank all the veterans for their service to our country. Thank you for the freedoms that you have fought and served for, for all of us.
With this painting, I tried an animal for the first time. Also making the background in three pieces instead of all together. I’m hoping it gives a bit of interest. This is based on the donkey at our local petting park. On to the thought. . .
