GIRL and GOATS

18 x 27 inches
Oil on Canvas

A Painting A Day



Last year I had a small series of Girl and Goat which was hugely received and the four I painted in the series did well in sales. I was sketching in bed the other night and decided to do one more with several goats and not just one. In the original series this same little girl is dressed as she is here and she has one black goat...her best friend. But I had the vision of her walking through the field with MANY goats...resulting in this precious piece. It is painted with a wide brush and thick Holbein Duo Oils.

Today it is early. Seems like I just did yesterday's blog and I did just do it at seven last night and it is almost five right now in the morning. Kay T make sure if you are reading this you read last night's for the email exchange question.

Today I will be working on several new compositions of horses and cows. So I am off to the canvas. I wanted to play the harp this morning, but decided my eyes were not ready to focus yet! Painting is easier to do at this hour.

Stay warm Sue. BRRRR...it was 72 degrees here yesterday! but getting cold again tonight. Back in the 30-40....

Grace,
Laurie
