My first Grizzly .

I've started working on paintings from the photos I took on my Wildlife photograph workshop with Kathleen Reeder at Lion Tigers and Bears.

So here's my first Grizzly. This Grizzly named Albert was just coming out of his enclosure for his morning search of food.

The painting is on linen board 24" x 30".
It's almost done.
So here it is

Sumatran Brothers are done

Here is the painting completed. The Sumatran Brother.
30" x 40" Oil on Linen.

Tigers almost done

Here they are getting close to being done.
When I took this photo the tigers were behind a glass enclosure. Thus a feeling of an unnatural block between the tigers and myself is reflected in the painting.

Tiger Painting progress

Okay, I'm still working on the Sumatran Brothers Tiger painting.
Thought I'd show you my progress. Ahhh the challenges of bringing it all together.
So here it is

I've actually been enjoying sketching and studying this little guys anatomy.....

I'm glad he moved in with us.
