        I am starting a new painting and if this one is successful in my mind I plan to begin a series. All large scale on gesso'd drop cloth canvas. Here I am applying the second coat of gesso using a roller made for ceilings on a rod. So far I am feeling pretty confident this will work out.

        The content of the painting is flora and fauna from around the area in which I live.
        Hard to see fine lines but I have an oak and hickory forest in there along with hellebore plants on the left with oak leaves and acorns in brown conte on the right.

        I am going experiment with some of the ferns in the backyard. I plan to roll paint onto part of a leaf and try to print it onto the canvas. I'll also start paint in the trees regularly in the background tomorrow and maybe parts of the buck. I want to paint the buck with a piebald coat. I have seen two juvenile piebald white tailed deer in the area and was inspired by their odd beauty. Below is a photo of one I took from last winter I will use for partial reference.

        Edit: some of the legs on the buck need widening...

                  @Mizmazzle I did (oil on panel board) 🤗 there was a time I was able to support myself with commissioned portraits and landscapes but desperately needed a consistent paycheck some time after the 08’ housing crash. I still paint but mostly for myself or for friends n family now.

                    Damn, Brennan. Really impressive. So much detail and incredible scale. And here I thought goofy, flannel porn was your primary talent!

                          @Oaktavia I look forward to keeping up with this project. Do you have an idea of where you’ll hang the finished pieces? Or will they be up for sale?

                            @Mizmazzle I'm painting this one to fill wall space in our front room in the house. I'll hang others where I can. I used to show work in galleries in my 20s but lost interest in the schmoozing aspect. I lost contact with all that...

                                  @Oaktavia probably for the best. Guess some separation of worlds is necessary.
