Welcoming the Lambs Completed Painting

A group of sheep and lambs have reached a place of safety,
and are welcomed to the chapel by the lovely caretaker with open arms.

It is complete. And I love it. :) Now I want to do a portrait of a lamb. They are so sweet! I've always loved sheep. One of my neighbors has goats. They're adorable too, but I don't think they're as sweet as sheep.

This painting is available on cards and as fine art prints in my shop. Also, I do have canvas print option - this painting will be fabulous as a canvas print. Read about my canvas prints here. And read about licensing options for this art here. I've also produced this art on ACEO art trading cards, available in packs of 100. ACEO collectors will love it!

Senak Peak 2 Welcoming the Lambs

Here's another sneak peak at the woman in my painting Welcoming the Lambs. She now has long hair...that took 3 hours! I've spent another 3 hours on the background as well. Now I'm working on the lambs, and then I will go over every inch, touching things up and adjusting color if necessary.

Sneak Peek at Welcoming the Lambs

Today I'm working on a more difficult painting. First of all, it's a full scene. Second, it has a human in it. That's always more challenging, as I'm primarily an animal painter. This painting features lambs. But I haven't gotten to that part of the painting yet, so I'm showing a sneak peek of the woman in the painting. I always work on the human first (specifically the face) in a painting like this, because it's the most difficult. So here's a sneak peek at the beginning of Welcoming the Lambs. :)
