Sunset Moth

Here is as far as i could get tonight.  I simply must finish by Thursday!

Burst of color

Hah i love the color burst that is taking place.  The black contrast on top of the color seals the painting.  It brings it all together.  I love it because it is soooooo rewarding.

Getting close

Just thought i should give another update.

Back to painting

Finally....i am painting again.  So much has gone on in my life recently!  Have a baby is one one of those things that can really keep you on your toes.  I am so thankful that baby Beckham is healthy and my wife Bethany had recovered well. 
     I have been commissioned to do a painting of a sunset moth.  I already did a pilot smaller sized painting that turned out well.  I have a post about.  But, my family is planning a trip back to Midland, MI next week.  I want to finish this painting by tomorrow night so i can take it to a hopefully, happy client. 
    I am using acrylic paint. I am using a reference photo.  I have not done a lot of painting in this medium, but so far it is going well.  I will keep the updates flowing.

Love you all...
