| I didn't take an early shot of this. I tried something a little different. I took watercolor board and covered it with a coat of gesso to prevent the water from soaking in so much and warping the top layer of paper. The result was when I poured the colors on they became a lot more brilliant! I poured a large white area where the moon would be and swirled the paint. The foreground will have a couple of wolves in it |
| After it dried I laid a big salad bowl on the moon and drew a circle. The shaded in the edges and layered some clouds over it. Trees silhouetted over the moon gives it depth. |
| I started blocking in the wolves |
| I love the challenge of painting the wolf and leaving parts of the background showing through! |
| Don't worry, the Mohawk is temporary. |
MOON SHADOW| Finished. Size 20x30. A viewer suggested the title and I
kind of like it. Although I start singing the Cat Stevens' song
every time I see it...sigh
"I'm being followed by a Moon shadow, Moon shadow, Moon shadow....." |
