"BEARY CLOSE" ORIGINAL OIL ON CANVAS PANEL © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Beary Close"
7"x5" oil on textured panel
SOLD

Every once in awhile I will do a requested piece.  This is different from a commission really because there is no money exchanged unless the requestOR likes it...that is what happened with "Beary Close".  A friend who loved the moose I did a month or so ago wanted a bear that was similar in feel...THUS this beary close up version of a bear!  Even though he is already sold, I did put him in my FINE ART AMERICA shop!  I created a frame as per her request...so, he's all dressed up and ready to go home!

I've been working on another requested painting the past couple of days.  It is a family barn on a specific piece of land.  I don't usually enjoy anything with lots of linear perspective, but this was a special request.  I have to admit that I don't usually do snow scenes either..especially when we've lived a cold winter...but, this, again, was a request.  I'm waiting to see if they want what I think is an old sign in the piece...so we shall see.  I also had a devil of a time photographing it!  Red just is nearly impossible to photograph!  It is really close in color to the original photo, but you wouldn't know it from looking at MY photo! sigh!  And on we go!

semi completed painting

I've also played around with a frame I made for "SunKissed"...the white was nice, but the distressed grey seemed just right!
AND, it's been awhile since I bragged on my family...I just got a kick out of this sweet photo of my grandson Paxton at the butterfly pavillion...he is SO gentle and curious...what a lovely thing to see...the wonder of a child!
 
and on we go!

HAPPY CREATING!

Bonjour chère amie,
Une publication riche en émotion à la vue de votre adorable petit-fils. La photo est sublime !
Et puis votre art sous toutes ses formes. Vous êtes si talentueuse.
J'aime le groin de votre ours qui semble sortir de son cadre comme s'il avait reniflé du miel !
La peinture avec le regard d'un oeil du cheval est aussi très intéressante.
Quand à votre scène de neige... Incroyable ! Il n'est pas simple de peindre la neige et la vôtre me semble si "floconneuse" et légère. Un beau travail.
je vous fais de gros bisous.
