"Eden" is complete

I finally completed this painting after putting it aside to figure out what finishing touches I would add to the painting. Hopefully I will be complete editing the demo of this painting video this week so I can upload onto Youtube. A print will be available this week in my shop.

Finished Painting

Happy Friday everyone! Man is it sure getting hot here in Hotlanta.

I wanted to show you my finished painting that I started last week. It was such a tough decision, because you guys gave such great suggestions. I decided to name it "Deeply Rooted", as suggested by Pocket Full of Prettys. Pocket, I will send you a print for helping me decide the title. I was pleased with the finished result and plan to create another with this similiar technique.

Sneak Peek - Painting in Progress

step #1 -Laying in the background color to my painting.

step #2 -Adding the grass with a cross hatch approach.

step #3 - Painting the foliage in the tree.

The toughest part for me after completing the painting is titling the piece. Sometime it comes to me quickly, other times I can't think of a thing. This image definately reflects my Christian faith and the tree represents having a firm foundation. Help me come up with a name! If I pick your title I will send you a prize.

New Bird with an Attitude

I've got another little bird to show you and he also has a very bad disposition, but he is super cute.
