Hi Everyone!
Happy August!
Hope you're all well!
I've been working on a painting. It's not finished yet, but I would like to show you some of the progress pictures.
Sometimes, painting the "background", takes just as long as painting my crows. Many layers of paint!
And, it doesn't mean it's going to stay that way in the end! LOL!
Next, placement of my crow.
More detail. This is where I am now.
Happy August!
Hope you're all well!

Dynamic background! It's coming together nicely.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your process. I really love seeing how a painting comes into being
ReplyDeleteThe backgrounds give your art so much depth. I keep looking at the painting you sent me, and there is so much of interest in the background their, too. Hope you are keeping well, and looking forward to seeing the finished picture. BIG hugs, Valerie

Neat to see the work build. Like how you combine the colors
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I love seeing it come to life and can't wait to see the final. I hope. Goodness, I've been so absent from the internet (for the inability to sit long) that I'm missing out on everything. Except for cheese. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat background is one of my favorite things I've seen of yours!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy seeing the process. It only makes the final result more intriguing, when we remember what went into it, what lives under the crow.
ReplyDeleteMany kisses, my sweet Stacy!
It is looking fabulous Stacy! I love the array of color!
ReplyDeleteLove that dramatic background. Very colorful. This is so cool the way you show us how you paint. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou know, it's funny that we really don't think about the work involved in making the backgrounds of painting. Obviously there's a lot to it. Thanks for sharing your step-by-step progress. It's always fun seeing your work. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteJust love the colours and textures you've shown here, and I'm definitely liking what I see so far.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing even more when you are ready.
Have a great week and month!
All the best Jan

ReplyDeleteOhhh this is so beautiful. I love all these colors. Sorry I have been away getting my Beadwright.com running. Pretty close to finished. Also, actually been hot here with little wind so I have been out in it. LOL Happy August to you too.
ReplyDeleteHappy August to you! It will soon by my birthday! :D Love seeing your progress photos and can tell, this is going to be a fabulous piece when it's completed. :)
ReplyDeleteBig hugs can't wait to see the final thing

so fun to see your process! amazing how much goes into the background :)
ReplyDeleteHi Stacy..this feels euphoric..the colors are radiating and the crow embodies such a sense of awakening and power! Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to more!!
Wishing you a most gorgeous Autumn, Have a lovely night kindred!
What can I say but WOW!!! I LOVE THESE COLORS!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous already!!! Love, love, love it!!!
ReplyDeleteI really love the linework on the crow body. It really makes everything jump!
ReplyDeleteLovely your color's dance!
ReplyDeleteI really do love the background. It reminds me of a cardigan I once asked a friend to knit. These days you can buy balls of wool made up of many different colours but back then you had to add each colour individually. It was a mammoth task but being a dear friend she completed it, and I wore it until it fell apart. She reminds me of it often and still calls it my coat of many colours. Thank you for sharing the process, I can see it will be even more beautiful when finished.
ReplyDeleteWOW! ADORE the background of that image just for itself!! A crow will, of course, make it even more special but I really love seeing that background stand on it's own. Do you try to have that sense of completion be the way you know when the background is done? I mean, if you paint a background, do you feel it is "complete" even before the crows are added? Or do you try to see before hand where the crow will take it's place as you go along and leave that space a little open? BIG crow HUGS! XX
ReplyDeleteHey Nicolas
DeleteBefore I paint my crow, yes, I do feel a sense of completion with my background. I might add a little more, after the crow is finished, but never a lot. And, yes, I do try to see where the crow will be before hand and leave a space a little open. Big Crow Hugs!
For some artists, your vibrant background would be a work of art itself. It's fascinating to see how you develop your crows!
ReplyDeleteI so love to see works in progress, yours is so vibrant and lovely!
ReplyDeleteI love how you did the background and I actually like it unfinished, a different look that would be.......
ReplyDeleteBIG crow HUGS! XX
