Waiting

Waiting, 8 by 10 inches oil
This painting evolved rather unexpectedly, here is how it did. Last week, I was messaging my sister on Whatsapp and she was taking a walk near her home( in Maryland).She typed saying that she was enjoying a baby deer and took a pic of what she saw and sent it to me.I could not resist to paint this adorable one standing there alone, painted it and sent the image back to my sister before she reached her home, talk about technology :-) (Later on I worked a bit more on that to arrive at this result)..Needless to mention that she was thrilled to see what she enjoyed just then had materialized in to a painting.

  4. I love the trees and the composition with the small deer so far in the woods yet seemingly looking at the viewer. Talk about technology and art working together. I'm sure your sister was thrilled when she got home to see this beautiful painting from her walk.

  14. The blue-greens work so well with the warm tones in this painting. Love that it is so peaceful. I have not tried to paint from another's vision. Neat idea!
