This is coming along very nicely ! Great Job!

Thanks Tony ! I sure will do that! Entries aren't until spring, though! The show is in October! LOL! Stay tuned !

That
anch is actual! LOL! When I saw it, it just begged me to perch an Owl on it! LOL!

Thank You !

This simple little painting is surprising me! When you nurture an eye for color & what happens to it in the light, you discover amazing things in your paintings! One major thing to keep in mind is that light IS color! From there, one must understand that light strongly effects color. For example...

Me Too! LOL!

This is "Looking UP!" another in the series! I have a week until I start classes with the Art Institute of Pittsburgh - online div. , Residential Planning - Diploma program. I think that is gonna keep me jumping for the next 14 mos ! There's gonna be another Owl on that prominent anch abov...

Thanks again! I love doing those textures!

LOL :lol: :D :D :lol: !!! I like the way YOU think!!! LOL! I'm trying to promote my work on Facebook! Check out my new Fan page - Stonefeather Fine Art Studio ! I'd appreciate all the fans I can get! I also have a blog at :www.stonefeatherfineartstudio.blogspot.com & if you Google me, I'm plaste...

I just sent you an email! LOL! I haven't ever tried the Ampersand paper! I'd like to! I absolutely LOVE Wallis! I HIGHLY recommend it! It's made a HUGE difference in my work since 2006 when I took a workshop with Albert Handell & he taught me about it! My work took an instant QUANTUM leap when I...

I appreciate your posting this here ! I knew about the feature, but haven't figured out how to get at it! Thanks much! I'm gonna set one up ! We can "Fan " each other!

I tend to have several works going at a time! This is the third in my series of Great Horned Owl paintings I'm currently doing ( I do a lot of Owls! LOL! ). This one I'm titling "Family Tree" ! I was amazed as I was researching my reference photos for this one & noticed that if I posit...

This one is titled "Looking UP!" & I'm actually going to use the same Owl image in this one that I did for Tiger Oak, but I plan to add her Chick! I also want to play with very different lighting in this one! In fact, I took a photo of Tiger Oak that has now inspired me because the Owl...

I started this a while back & have had it sitting on my table easel. I started playing with it while I was finishing Tiger Oak & I think it's shaping up pretty nice! It's even surprising me. I developed several tricks in Tiger Oak & now I find they're serving me well ! On that basis, I e...

Thanks for the compliments! I am very proud of this one! The trick NOW is to do as well on everything from now on! LOL!

I heartily agree Barb! Paint the Light! . . .and you're doing a lovely job here! You seem to understand using warms & cools & I find that's a rare skill! Too many try to think in terms of light & dark only. As you're showing here, there's a lot of color in those shadows!

This is my first posting here . I'm a new member & I'm very pleased & impressed so far! This is my newest painting - "Tiger Oak" . I chose this title because I've sometimes heard Great Horned Owls referred to as "Flying Tigers " . My process involved very close & inte...

I finished her early this morning & she's now signed ! I'm quite delighted & I think I'll post her to the Fury forum.

I just had a few belly feather markings left to put in when I took this photo! :wink: :D I'm pleased that you like it! I'm quite pleased with it! I'm even hoping to base my reputation on it & will be submitting it to the PSA in hopes of garnering "Signature Member" status ! :lol: :wink...

I really appreciate this information also & I'll be passing it on! I consider pricing a nemesis & have been told I price high. Personally, I feel that after dedicating my life to my Art at 54 yrs old & attaining a respectable level of proficiency, I deserve to be equally decently paid fo...
