Little Piglet. "Paint a Pig" Daily Paintworks Challenge.

An 8x10 Oil of a cute little Piglet! This is a piece I have just finished for the Daily Paintworks "Paint a Pig Challenge". Really fun to do and goes along with my baby animal series. Tried to keep it loose and more impressionistic. I decided to use the blues and greens in the background to compliment the oranges in the piglets hair. He looks a little sleepy looking up at us doesn't he? Can't resist that kind of look!

Psalm 143:8
"Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life."

Daily Paintworks Rectangle Challenge; Calf

Just finished this 8x10 oil for the Daily Paintworks Rectangle Challenge! My first time to submit one. How exciting! The challenge was to paint anything you wanted, placing paint on the canvas one stroke at a time, using a different color each stroke. Gives you a more abstract look to your painting, not allowing any fussing! Really enjoyed it. Never would have thought I could produce a painting of a calf using this method. There was a time of panic about a quarter through the painting process! Managed to stay calm and fight through it! I plan to use this method again.

Psalm 115:1
"Not to us, Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness."
