STASHED AWAY by Sheep Incognito

STASHED AWAY by Sheep Incognito

For your favorite fiber hoarder and stashoholic

Stashed Away is a good piece of wall art for your favorite knitting nook, fiber studio, or even just a place that needs some happiness when you walk by it.

I painted this using Winsor & Newton, Lukas, and Old Holland Oil Paints – I just love the heavy pigment saturation of them. Once you use good oils, you will never go back to student grade paints.

We create giclée reproductions on canvas of this on in various sizes – all available on the website by clicking here.

A NEW ALPACA PAINTING IN THE FLOCK

Trying Out New Things In The Studio

“Our heads are round, so our mind can change directions….”

That is my mantra lately – some call it “squirrely”, others call it “uncommitted”, still others call it “creativity”. Whatever it is that makes us think around the corner, it is what hit me recently.

Sheep have happened. and, I love pInting them – they make me smile. But why stop there?

So I’ve started to add new critters, new media, and new techniques to my studio.

Most recently, my easel has been my ipad, with a nice painting app, to explore the process of digital paainting. It seems a much more portable and forgiving media – not to mention, that the juried fine art shows offer a digital media category that needs some smiles as well.

So here are my first endeavors with the new roadmap I am following for a bit:

TITLE:”Cowllamaty”

And this is one in progress, that I have been working on this morning a title to be determined….

 

A new Alpaca Painting in the making

 
Let me know what you think – I always love feedback!

Oh, and, of course we will offer these as prints on paper and as hand-embellished giclée eproductions on canvas soon!
