Southern Ground Hornbill - finished

"Southern Ground Hornbill" - en gigantisk og utroligt udseende fugl, der lever i Afrika. Jeg har nydt at gå i detaljer og få fuglens udtryk og særpræg på papiret. Efter mange timers arbejde, er jeg stolt af resultatet.

Zebra no 3 - wip

My process with Zebra no. 3 in the Perfect Stripes serie. A very red background to spice things up and then going for the dark stripes.

Bongo antelope finished

Here are my finished painting of Bongo Antelope in the series Perfect Stripes.

The bongo is not as well known as the other animals in the serie, but I find it a very beautiful one.

My next project will be yet another in the wildlife serie, a zebra actually no. 3 in this serie.

Bongo - wip

Showing some close-ups here. My colors are Ultramarine Blue, Burnt Sienna, Cadium Orange, Umber and some White.
Very messy stages for the first 2 pics. Getting tighter in the last pic.

Progress on the Bongo painting. I paint shadows with Burnt Umber first. Many layers, texture and details to come.

Bongo - wip

I really need to get some paintings ready - the Easter exhibition will arrive, and I also want to expand my palette of paintings for future exhibitions. I decdided to paint more animals in my Perfect Stripes serie, but in a smaller size. It is always a nice thing to have different price-options to present to people/exhibition-organizers. This will be 40x60 cm and is a beautiful Bongo Antelope. Acrylic on canvas. So far the outlines drawn with a few grid-guidelines :)
