My First Demo!

What a great time! The Brenham Fine Art League asked me to do the Demo at their monthly meeting. It was my first Demo and I really enjoyed it. You can see the painting of Donna in Venice (appropriate) in the mirror over my head.

I did "Paint Like a Venetian". I used elements of all the things I've learned about painting from all the great artists I've been lucky enough to work with, but I relied mainly on Tina Skajko and Geoff Laurence. I incorporated the 5 steps: Drawing, Grisaille, Dead Color, Final Coat, and Glazes.

This is something I'd really like to do a lot more of.

About Me

My photo
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
