Paintings in Progress

{cropped view of painting in progress}

I currently have two acrylic paintings in progress. One is another modern commissioned portrait so I have to wait to share that one, but this is the other one and is so close to being finished. I just have some doves flying in the upper right (you can kind of see a little of the pencil sketch of them showing) to get painted and it will be done (oh I guess the sides too)! This one was so much fun and I think I captured what I was going for. I actually used a sponge as my paintbrush for most of it and blended colors I normally don't use. I've wanted to paint clouds for a long time... something dreamy.

Linking up with Studio JRU. Head on over there to see what other creative people are doing.
Have a great weekend!
