I was going to wait until I had talked to Mark again before I started painting, but I’m not sure if he’s already settled in for the night or what. SooooOooOOO…

I started up the cam! I’ll be painting the background, get that finished up and allow it to set up overnight so I can start working on everyone else.

I’m using the Yahoo cam, right click enlarge the view to 200% and then again to 100% to see the whole view. I’ll be shutting the cam down at 1:30PM CST as I have some other things I have to get done, but I will be painting on cam until then today.

Here’s the sketch!

My next painting is a biggun’. It’s 18×24, and the composition is incredible. The colors are going to be rich, deep and warm; it is going to be an amazing portrait!!

I’ve just completed the digital layout, merging a few photos together to create the composition. Once the digital layout is approved, I’ll sketch it and post a picture for you to see!

I will be painting this one on cam. You will probably see more of me than the painting since I’ll be using my floor easel, I will try to position the cam good for you!

I’ll probably post the sketch tomorrow sometime, and start painting in the afternoon. I’ll update you in the morning!

Hope you had a great day!

Here she is! There may or may not be some revisions, I will show you her scan once she’s dry & has her final approval. 🙂

P.S. I’m turning the webcam off now!

GOOD MORNING!!

I’m using the Yahoo connection today, getting a little frustrated with the javacampush thing on my own program. Phooey. So there’s the link, the webcam is ON, right-click/zoom to 200% then down to 100% to see the full view!

I’ll be painting Annie at about 10AM CST!

Just turned the cam off. Here’s the scan of Scarlett & Sebastian, and the underpainting of Annie. I have not refined her eyes or her coat yet, I will finish her tomorrow.

Today’s Annie’s turn on the easel! YAY! She is such a little sweetie pie and I am so excited to paint her!

I am guessing I’ll be painting around 10AM CST. It’s only 6:30AM, I have only had one cup-o-java so far and still have chitlens to care for. (sssh they’re still sleeping!)

So I’ll be working on Annie on Cam, I’m going to go with MY cam and I’ll go ahead and turn it on now even tho I won’t be out in the studio for a couple-a hours yet. Why not? You can gaze upon her cuteness at your leisure!

I had a dream lastnight that “Homecoming” not only sold, but had a bidding war in the last hour! Wouldn’t that be something exciting to watch! You better not be saying “in your dreams, Leanne”, because you have to know by now most of my dreams come true. ;D

Hey! Kiddo #1 is clinging to my arm smiling and saying good morning to me, so I’m going to scoot!

I’ll be back with progress pics & scans and stuff later,
HAPPY SATURDAY!

Here they are, I will wait until this layer dries and scan it, get final approval and post the finished piece for you to see!

(I’m turnin’ the cam off now.)

I finished up Sebastian today and will work on Scarlett tomorrow, then I’ll touch-up Sebastian’s fur highlights.

Heard from Mark today, yay! He’s all moved up to his new location. What a relief.

Have a good night!
