Original oil by Linda Besse 

 

   Thanks for following along on this painting. It certainly was a challenge for me and something I probably wouldn't have tackled 2 years ago. While it is much easier to paint simple compositions, working on a piece likes this really pushes me as I figure out how to approach and then execute a complicated painting.

October 3 was the first in progress post on this painting. 

Note: The painting is too wet for scanning so the above image is a phone photo. The details and subtlety of the brush strokes are not as visible in a phone photo. 

 

After "being" in a dark forest, it's time for some light.

My next painting includes a polar bear. 

Stay tuned.
