"I'm currently working on an oil painting of Roger from Wortham, Texas, the second place winner in the Grey Brahman Calf Division at the Fort Worth Stock Show. (I posted a watercolor sketch of him on February 1st). Right after winning his ribbon, he posed for me in the late afternoon light, with the skyline of Fort Worth in the distance behind him. I always enjoy the challenge of trying to capture the effect of sunlight late in the day -- with its warm, yellow light and its cool, blue shadows."

As other have mentioned, they could have sketched the light and shade, then painted over... even so at midday the light might not move so fast. You can do the basic areas if colour then fine details after you know what the flesh tones are and where highlights and shadows sit. You can paint fast :)

This comment scared the carp outta me.

Yes I really have no idea why sometimes the image gets uploaded AND displayed, other times not.

How did you do that? I can't find all the country flags on android emojis. I really wanted the Scottish flag.

"There are over 450 species of shark that roam the planet's waters. Although many have a bad reputation, artist Chris Austin hopes to add a little perspective to the ocean predator in his new series of paintings.

The Toronto-based artist has a multi-faceted creative practice that spans both painting and sculpture. His diverse portfolio of work is greatly inspired by the environment of North America, specifically the Pacific Northwest. Austin explores the mutability of the landscape as well as our tenuous relationship with it."

Thanks, I'm baffled why the resolution drops when I post a link. There's no rhyme or reason. I'm using Connect for Lemme app

A lot of Monet is unfussy and messy compared to other impressionists. I do like SOME of his work but here I was looking for a piece we hadn't already seen and where the colours had been preserved well.
