Little Jack

"Little Jack" (pastel, 6x6 inches)  click here to bid

I'm going to try to do more little squares this year, because I like composing in a square, and eventually I'd like one of my books to be just a book of little square paintings, maybe.

If 'Little Jack' looks familiar, it's because it's actually another view of 'Miso'. I was wondering how this calf would look in a very high-key value scale with just those 5 dark spots (or 7 if you count the baby horns..) I admit to becoming trapped and wandering joyfully about for far too long in the blues, violets and greens of the white shadows. After that I forgot to take more photos, but here are the progress shots up to that point:






Thanks for watching! Please share!
