Wildlife Art in 2012
Its been a while since I have had the time to sit down and write an article about wildlife art and I apologize to my loyal readers for that. We have been so busy trying to earn money so that we can continue to create wildlife art that this blog has suffered. I will try to remedy that starting today.
For the past 18 months, we have been on the road gathering photographs for our reference library as well as doing odd jobs to earn money. We’ve been all over South Georgia, Florida, Continue reading

David Maass Wildlife Artist
I think every wildlife artist dreams of one day being able to convey wildlife through their paintings the way David Maass has in his works of art.
The big advantage that David Maass has when painting wildlife is his ability to paint a world as seen through the eyes of a hunter. He is a master of both design and observation of the natural world. When viewing one of his paintings, it’s obvious that he has been to the scene portrayed in the image.
He has done what most wildlife artists Continue reading

Wildlife Art – Mallard Ducks – The Haven
Today, I finished my latest Mallard Duck painting in my Wildlife Art Series entitled “The Haven” and I’ll talk a little about how this painting came about.
I first started this painting back on December 18, 2010 as an experiment in just painting for the fun of it, and talked about that process in Painting for Fun. When I started the painting, I did not use my normal method of planning for the painting. I just set up a canvas, mixed some colors, and went to work.
I did want the painting to have Continue reading

Cleaning Paint Brushes
Cleaning paint brushes is sometimes not enough to keep them at their peak performance. In a previous post, How to Clean Paint Brushes, I mentioned that the best way to care for your paint brushes was to keep them clean. I always wash my brushes thoroughly when I’m finished with a painting session for the day.
However, with even the most diligent regular Continue reading
