I have now added to the hare, and changed the background to grey, which I do think is better than the green/ blue I had originally begun with, I had been feeling unhappy with him and could not see why, I think I feel in a better place now to continue with him to the end, here is the original beginning
i have
also changed the beagle a little, making him a little richer in tone, and dulling the background tone

A year later…. Oil over acrylic?? Is this the wrong thing to do? Wait to dry then comple the painting.

About REcreate-RebeccaEvansCreate
My name is Rebecca Evans, living in the New Forest I have been inspired to paint the many animals often seen around me. Having ridden since Childhood, painting equines was a natural path to follow.
I use a variety of media, watercolour, oil, charcoal, pastel,inks, plus a few more, infact I will try most things. Choosing the medium to work with can really change the effect of the art, and therefore the character of the animal. Sometimes it is an instant decision, sometimes it is the mood from within me which determines which medium I choose to use.
I never know what might inspire me next, but if it’s hairy, I will be sure to try.
