Lemon Spongecake Sheep on Merlot

Lemon Spongecake Sheep on Merlot.......18 x 36 gallery wrap canvas.

The background was going to be called Candied Apple but by the time I was done it looked darker and more like a wine color.....thus merlot.  The black faced sheep family are super vibrant, almost glowing a shade of yellow.....and they look like sponges!

Glowing Owl on Vanilla Cappuccino & more Giraffes!

Glowing Owl on Vanilla Cappuccino (24 x 24)......one of my favorite subjects to paint.....another owl!   Am trying to capture the interesting colors of a cup of cappuccino with swirls of vanilla.  I thought the reds and light yellows complimented the cappuccino background nicely.....
