Peek In The Studio – Raccoon, Moose, Trumpeter Swan, & Fox

Red Fox, Raccoon, Trumpeter Swan, Moose, 6x8, Works in Progress, Watercolor, Rebecca Latham

This is a small collection I have been working on that I hope to have out to its venue soon.  All of the paintings are 6in x 8in.  Having worked on larger pieces for some time, it is somewhat refreshing to get back to several smaller scale works that give a relatively instant gratification.  This collection is a reflection of the wildlife here in Minnesota and the Midwest.

The temperatures in Minnesota have dropped recently, bringing with it an influx of migrating birds.  As I observe, I find myself visualizing all of the bustling bird feeder activity as various songbird paintings (yet, not starting any pieces because I have so many to finish already).  So perhaps I will noodle the composition options for a while and come up with something interesting.
