Second on the Second - Paintings



Last month during a T Stands For, I mentioned I had been commissioned to paint Five Shaolin Animals for the dojo where Himself takes classes and teaches. I had a request to show close-ups of the paintings.

I had documented steps for the paintings. If interested, you can read the process and see close-ups of the works in progress.

  3. How exciting to have your paintings on the wall someplace various people can see them. I think that's exciting, and I love all the in process links too.:) Happy Sunday.

    1. It's pretty cool since a lot of my artwork get thrown away (i.e. invitation envelopes)

  5. Thanks for sharing these beauties again. I only saw the first photo before, but I got caught up in reading about the various beauties you created. Laughed at Fluffy. Yes, everyone's a critic, especially the young ones!

    These are simply wonderful and, like Erika, I think it must be exciting to have your paintings on display in a place where they can be appreciated and respected. Thanks for sharing this second look with us on the 2nd.

    1. The story of Fluffy still makes me laugh. Everyone may be a critic, but at least they are taking time to look and notice. :-D
