Today was really a fun day. It was the first of 4 times I will get to work with Clayton Beck this week. Today and tomorrow will be dedicated to learning Clayton's Still Life techniques. This is the painting I did today. It is an 8" x 10" oil, already stretched, and I think it turned out well. I still have a little work I'd like to do on it before I will consider it finished. Then I'd think I'll sell it.

Only $100 for an original "Art by Shep" painting. First one to contact me gets it.

Thanks, Shep

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
