Galaxy Nest

It's been a busy busy 2012 so-far. I'm hard at work on a ton of art that I can't show the world for a while.

I did finish a new owl personal piece recently. It's a pair of owls snuggling in a cozy little galaxy nest. This will replace the 3-year-old acrylic owl painting that was formerly over our fireplace.

Oh, and no little owlets on the way... I actually didn't quite realize the interpretations of the egg until my husband pointed it out. But, as this is going to grace our living space for years to come, I can only see us growing into it.






I painted this at a big huge size and then had it printed through Costco (Snapfish) on a nicely sized 40"x30" wrap canvas. I am quite happy with how the canvas turned out (the photos don't do it perfect justice.)

Work Work Work

I've been a busy schmo lately. On the 3rd, I finished the painting Guardian Angel Arin (small version below). The just yesterday I finished Superdog (after working on it for three days), a pet portrait for a good friend. I've included the progress steps for it below.

Next up, I've got a fantasy book cover for a small press (should be a fun cover, as it seems like a comedy story), and an angel book cover for the same client who commissioned the painting below. :)



The final version is on my site here: Guardian Angel Arin
