Close ups
This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Bonnie supplied a bunch of super clear reference photos. Thanks, Bonnie.
Seems I'm always painting the geese and goslings whenever they show up on a WDE.
I had to cut out a second cluster of babies in the reference for a little more room. Momma still has her hands...err...better make that wings full, though.
I really liked the curves of the necks and the negative shapes created.
Had no game plan for this but this is where I wound up. I had to paint out the background once....That's what's great about acrylics!
C&C welcome. Thanks for looking and commenting!

Thank you, Martine! Those are beautiful roses on your blog today!
Dean this is just so cute! I love the limning of the mom and her babies with black; a neat effect of backlighting on a bright day.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sherry! Glad you feel the black line works. I kinda liked it.
DeleteExcellent painting, Dean! It looks like it should be on the cover of a child's book!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful work!!
Hi, Hilda...Thanks!
DeleteLoved the doggie portrait over at your blog! :)
fun to see the momma and her little ones---you always nail the animals (oh, that didn't sound right---but you know what I mean!)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Celeste!
DeleteLol...Yeah. Can't always take comments literally! Lol!
Delightful painting Dean. Love the little ones.
