Will the arctic paintings ever be finished?

Probably not before winter is over. Thought I would post a progress pic of the next one. I have painted over this one several times. I don't think my initial plan is going to work. It is an ermine leading our girl out of some underbrush. There is a lot of work left to be done on this one.

More Arctic Art!

Our little heroine meets a friendly polar bear who helps her on her way.

I have been doing a lot of house painting to pay the bills so I haven't had as much time on these as I had hoped. Slowly but surely.

Arctic Painting

The first in a new series of paintings. These are following a little girl through the arctic as she looks for a place to ice skate. There are six planned pieces. Since mural work is pretty slow hopefully I can get these finished up fairly quickly. My basement studio is freezing so I'm working on the dining room table which thrills my wife and kids.

Winter Daydream Sketches.

Trying to decide what to paint next. I will probably start on some winter ones that follow a little girl through the snow as she looks for a place to ice skate. Here are some very rough sketches of what I am thinking.

Santa Claus Painting

I worked on another Christmas painting today. It seems awfully early to be thinking of the holidays but I have a feeling they are going to be over before I know it. I think I will do a couple more of these and then try to to finish that last woodsman painting. I think it will then be time to tackle a series of paintings for girls.

New Holiday Paintings

I got a little frustrated with the winter woodsman painting so I decided to move on to something else. With the holidays coming up and a couple of craft fairs on my horizon I decided to try and and do a few quick Christmas/holiday themed paintings to make prints and cards from. Here is the first, with the sketch and then the painting, The Snowman.

As always you can see more of my work here.

Nighttime for the Woodsman: Winter (in progress)

I'm working on the last season. I haven't taken many pictures. I really just thought about it and took this one. I'm well into the painting though and will hopefully finish it up soon.
