To keep up with demand, I can raise the price of the little studies - or paint more. I'm really opposed to raising the price so I'm going to try to do two 75 for $75's a day. In time, I may go to an auction system (not Ebay!) but not yet. So here are today's two studies!
The first is a loon. I resist painting loons because they sit so low in the water there's not much bird to paint,. So in this first study, I concentrated on interesting colors and brush work in the water.
208 - Loon
The second study of the day is an egret. I've painted quite a few egrets for the 75/75 project so I tried completely different brushwork on this piece. It looks detailed - and I confess I used a smaller brush - but it didn't take any longer. I flared out the bristles on a #6 round watercolor brush to paint it - and rather like the effect. It's softer. I can see using this technique for more tonalistic pieces.
