Work in progress, ‘Phillip’, 12″x16″, mixed media on canvas, 2016

What’s that old saying a change is as good as a rest? Truth be told, I had become a bit bored and disillusioned with painting, so over the last 10 months I decided to take a break and went exploring into the digital and fibre worlds. Well, I’m happy to say that my painting ‘mojo’ returned this weekend; I picked up the brushes and returned to the easel….it felt good!!! Like REALLLLY good.

Here are a few more pics of ‘Phillip’, my work in progress. Not finished yet, still a lot more work and light to add on his face, and then to push back his tail and back leg back a bit more…. but over all I’m pleased with the progress and really love the pose. NOW….just to keep it loose on the finishing touches and not over work things!!
