I've created eight large paintings and several small ones from this same "photo shoot" of this herd of sheep I came across somewhere in North Texas years ago. And I still haven't exhausted the possibilities.
I must say, when the conditions are just right - the light, the subject, the time - you'd best run with it, and keep snapping! Good fortune smiled upon me when I found these sheep.
On this public Patreon post you can read some tips on scoping for photo refs, more about how I found these sheep, and a little gallery of all the paintings (15!) I've done so far from them. ...Be sure to read all the way to the end, for my favorite features in a camera and a terrific digital camera reviewing site!
Now for an IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:
The
Feedburner team announced that their email subscription service will be
discontinued in July 2021. As a result, Blogger’s email subscription
widget, also known as FollowByEmail, will be turned off. Specifically,
the email subscription system will no longer work and subscribers to
Google blogs will no longer receive email updates.
SO! If you're
receiving this post via email, I thank you for your subscription, but
you will no longer be getting these delivered to you from my Google Blog
after next month.
But don't despair! There's a way you can still get my Art Journal musings in your inbox! Simply follow my public Patreon Posts. Sure, Patreon is a subscription-based
creative support platform, but you don't have to pay anything for my
public posts, and just about all of my new work gets posted on my
Patreon page, along with occasional art tips and extra info like this post. CLICK HERE to go to my Patreon Page
and right below the membership levels, next to a button that says
"share" is a button that says "follow". It's that easy! (Browse around
my other free posts while you're in there..)
Thanks
so much for following my blog. Here's to many more
years of following my Patreon, and to many more years of
creative thinking!
