My Swan

Just a quick post. I'm always saying I'm going to share my artwork or other creative pursuits with you - and tonight I actually am!

Here's a finished swan I painted. I painted it with acrylics on canvas board. This is a new adventure for me as I normally paint on paper or on wood. I wanted to start out on canvas board in case I botched it. :) I used tube acrylics in various brands - mostly Windsor & Newton - and enjoyed every minute of this painting. I can't wait to start another one.

This is a close-up of the swan. I hope you enjoyed seeing it.


God bless you ~ Julie

  1. It is BEAUTIFUL, Julie!! The reflection in the water is wonderful!The water ripples around the swan make it look as though she/he(?) just dipped her head in the water to clean up, and is now admiring her beauty. I am so happy you shared it with us.
