Painting in Progress: Two Sheep

I’ve had an idea involving sheep running around my mind for a while, and today began to translate it onto canvas. I put two smallish canvases side by side and worked them simultaneously. It gives me more than one try at the idea, helps prevent me fuss at it as I’m painting.

They’re still works in progress. I’ll leave them overnight to dry, but already know I want to add more tonal variation to the faces, which are a bit flat, and probably eyes.

Work in Progress. Size 12x16 inches (about 30x40cm).
