| This is the second painting to be featured in the upcoming art show benefit the Nevada Rock Art Foundation. Check my blog for the dates and details.
When I see the rock carvings that still exist to this day out in the wilderness, I wondered how many times the animals that are depicted in them have wandered by them over the centuries, so I decided to do a painting that shows just such a scenario. I call this one, "As Previously Seen", and here's the progress... Above is my underpainting and initial drawing started as usual. After I lay in the sky, I get right to work on the bighorn sheep. Here's the detail below. |

| Today I paint in the background taking care to convey atmospheric perspective and then I work in the bulk of the rocks. I should be able to finish it in one more setting, so click here to see the finished piece! | |||||||||
