Working on Paintings for February's Show


I've finished the first coat. When this dries I'll glaze the painting with Bohemian Green then paint the entire painting again.

I'd like to finish this painting for the Art Show in Brenham, Texas, in January. And then put it in my first show February 13th, at Lampross Gallery.

I think we're off to a good start. How do you all like her?

My name is Bob Shepherd, but when I paint I'm known as "Shep". I love to paint people. Happy people. Sad people. People dancing. People in contemplation. Old people. Young people. Lately I've gotten into painting new things and I'm enjoying the challenge. Flowers and still life's have been fun. My blog is here to show you what I'm doing and how I'm doing it. If I'm doing your commission you can follow the progress of your "PortraitbyShep". If you'd like me to do your portrait please notify me through the blog. Please enter your email above and I hope you enjoy the blog. Shep
