W.I.P.

I've been taking a timeout from the Tuck Everlasting piece to work on this portrait piece for the Splendorporium Children's Gallery. Gabby, the gallery attendant and friend of mine asked me to do a painting demo for their "Pets and Portraits" show. I was more than happy to do it and Gabby even modeled for the painting. It's nice to break out the oils after all of the digital work I have been doing. These are some shots of the sketch-in and toning part of my process. I'll do the color lay-in during the demo, which hopefully, will be at least somewhat amusing to anyone watching me paint. I'll try to keep my usual frustrations and cursing to a minimum do to the kids around :)

Come to the show on Friday night if you are in the Portland area. I'll have some prints available and the show looks fantastic!
