"Texas Poppies" by Shep is Glazed!


Can you tell which photo is the one of "Texas Poppies" glazed?  These two pictures were taken about an hour apart.  I finished covering the canvas earlier this week and felt it was dry enough to glaze today.  When the glaze dries my next step will be to take the painting outdoors and work on the darkest dark areas.   I want my dark areas to not be black, that's dead.  I want them to be mysterious.  Then the painting will be taken indoors to finish the bright areas.  I want my brights to be brilliant.

If you said the bottom one was the glazed picture, you would be correct.

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
