Wildlife painting is very soothing for me. Kind of like staring into a campfire. Siiigh! love that. Spending time on a painting that features beautiful animals or landscapes is an escape from a world that seems too high tech for me. I often feel I should have been born during a different era. Just an old soul I suppose.
I vary my technique depending on the mood I want to create for each piece. I always try to maintain a brushy and painterly quality to the finished works. I want them to feel like paintings as opposed to photographs. I find photorealism impressive as a skill, but a bit uninspiring for artistic expression.
