Alla-prima oil painting.

The Moon Rises in the clear early evening sky, as do the owls, making ready for their nightly watch.

Another random bird in oils because I can. Like this one: http://stickypawz.timduru.org/Art/01GoldenE.html done to fill spare time, and scratch my urge to paint small random fast paintings. Things as this are for those antsy times between commissions or while I wait on customer feedback.

If you feel you need to be in the studio or doing art then do it! Don't have anything to art? Then go to a random word generator on-line and art whatever comes up. That is what I do. I have a sketch book full of random animals (and my Unicorn Face). Sometimes these sketches - like this one - end up painted. I have a few of these small canvas boards prepared, and sketched on so the minute the urge to paint hits I don't have to take an hour or more for the prep and drawing. Sometimes they are blank and blind paint slinging sessions like this one: http://stickypawz.timduru.org/Art/01FetzBD.html

Done in Oils, wet onto wet (Alla-Prima) in around 3-4 hours. This one was a little tedious and had a set back or two. Otherwise it might have taken half that time. I kind of want to go back once its dry (yes its still wet), and work it over, but that would defeat the purpose of these oil exercises. In the end I am pleased with it... Mostly...

When it dries I will re-post this one with a better scan, as this was the best I could do with it still being wet.
