Variation 3, starting to break free
Third variation on same photo reference.
Rendering a perfect likeness is not my objective.
Moving from painting to art/ finding light and shadow/keeping the emotion involved....
that's more like it.
The emotion that inspired me in the photo is present. I'm pleased.
More to come.

Down Valley at Dusk
The sun is dropping behind the trees. Color is becoming indiscernible. Soon the deer whose tracks are seen in the snow will return to find food at the edge of the field and bed down in the grasses under the tree line, where they spend each night. Calm descends on a snowy evening.

An equally small painting on a snowy day.
I wanted to paint the dove with as few marks as possible, almost like calligraphy.
