Hawk painting for Elements Art Show


This is my hawk painting for an art show that some friends and I are planning.  The show revolves around elements.  This hawk represents the element of air.  I will do three more animal paintings for the other three elements - earth, fire and water.  This hawk painting is fluid acrylics on canvas and is 24" by 30".

Deer and Jones Bridge Park Paintings


 

Jones Bridge Park painting is done on illustration board - 16" by 20".  The deer painting is on a much larger canvas - 24" by 30".  I used fluid acrylics for both.

Pumpkins and Wolf Landscape


 


Both of these paintings are 24" by 30", fluid acrylics on canvas.  The wolf painting took me a little longer to complete because of the dark background.  Dark backgrounds require more paint and typically increase the amount of time required to finish a painting.

Large Hawk Painting

 

This is my first time painting on canvas.  It is 24" by 30" and I used fluid acrylics.  Fluid acrylics went on the canvas easier than I expected - very easy to do gradient washes.  It was a much more forgiving surface than primed illustration board.  I also managed to scan this painting and the colors turned out well.  I had to scan it in eight separate sections and then stitch them all together.  Overall I am pleased with how it turned out and I plan on doing at least two more paintings on canvas this year.
