"Storm Chaser"

I've been spending a great deal of time working with my oils lately. My progress has been a bit slow, but there is progress none-the-less. I finished this piece this morning and thought I'd share. Storm Chaser is 15x30 oil on canvas panel and features a Northern harrier hawk.

Jim,
The painting looks great! In college I found oils to be a little more forgiving than acrylic. But you seem like both work well for you! Are you going to be at McKeever at the end of September?

Hi Katie (and Mike) :)
Yes, the McKeever Art Show will be September 25-27 and I will be there. I'll be fresh back from 2 weeks in Wyoming, so I'll have lots of stories and new reference material to work from. See you there!

Great! We'll be there! It will be Lisa's first at show!
