Gathering of Elks, 16 X 20. Oil on board. I had a hard time with this painting. I had made an 8 X 10 earlier, but enlarging it and painting it was difficult.
Warm winter's day. This one was also difficult. 11" X 14" enlarged from my plein air paintings last week. I changed some of the buildings and added them (from my photos). I wanted to include the hawk that was in the tree too.
I found it easier to work on canvas than board in top painting. I guess I need to practice more. I noticed a big difference in color palette. The Elks photo was taken in Alberta in early summer. The cattle were observed in early winter in Idaho.
