Out of the Shadows

6 x 6 oil on canvas to bid at auction 

Lambs Running6

In this painting I am trying to add depth. The lambs were each taken from different photos. This is also part of the Daily Paintworks challenge. This is out of my comfort zone. If I didn't do paintings like this I wouldn't learn.

Lambs on the Run2

SOLD

This is the second of the lambs running series. I may rearrange them in a different order or just put two of them in the next picture.

Lamb no6

This is the previous painting with acrylic over it to try and save it. Still not liking it enought to sign it.

The color does not match from the one above. I photograph my images outside and it is a little early to get the correct color. This one is photographed in the early sunlight to show the interference paint. I have used it before to bring light to dull areas. I do like the lambs, that is why I had hoped to save this painting. I can cut them out as part of a collage.

This is the Photoshopped image that I started out with. I was pushing myself to try this. All three were from different photos and I had to guess at the light. As you can see the background was completely thrown out in the end.

Lamb no6

This started out as a watercolor. I am painting acrylic over it. I don't think this is working either Sometimes I just don't know when to quit.

Spring Lamb 4

This was the last one painting before putting my paints up. I tried to go with a more muted color pallette and a little different style. I may try it again with photos of the painting in progress.
