Greenwings Update

It has been a crazy month or so trying to balance commission work, print remarques, painting for two shows and traveling to Milwaukee. The above painting is for one of the shows. Some progress was made on the detail and the painting is getting closer to being finished. The ducks themselves need some work and keeping them looking like they are in the fog while subtly showing enough detail to define the species will be tricky. This painting is another in what is becoming a series of waterfowl paintings. Evening Sprig, South Platte Sunrise, and First Flight feel like the forefathers to this painting. I enjoy the landscape aspect with the ducks not being as prominent, but still showing that commitment to landing.
