My paintbrush had a mind of it's own today. Crazy messy is how this dog ended up. It was a very poor photo with not much detail, I changed it up.

It is hard to believe that I have painted close to 200 cows.  The best thing about this is that I have learned so much by painting the same subject, even though every cow is different, the little similarities are always there and it just seems to flow when I am painting ...I am already looks forward to the next 200.

This is my vision of what summer looks like turning to fall.  I used transparent paints to start blocking in all of the lights and darks. I find this gives me a really solid start.
