Moose painting on the easel

[DaveHawk]

I've been studying up on these beast and got the inspiration to paint one. Can you imagine one of these beast stepping out in front of you while your driving. I hope you enjoy this one. I've been wanting to do a moose in memory and in honor of a good friend who passed away this year. His nickname was Moose. So this will mean a lot to his family. Mark bugged me for years to paint a moose. I'm sure he will like it even now.

Full Day yesterday from noon till the end of the Skins game. I wish I could paint full time. But for now weekends and evenings.

Dave, I don't like the way he is looking at me......I might be standing where he was planning on standing, and he is darn sure he can make me move!!

This one is going to be cool! I like the *in your face* and up close look on this one.

 

[DaveHawk]

Kansasdad, perfect ! thats what I was going for. Thanks
Id; I did bring the snout {mouth} out just a bit to give that look. Kind of like a fisherman holding a fish at arms length to make the fish look bigger. Thanks

Very cool, looks like the snout is coming out of the canvas.

After noon in the studio. Produced a good amount. Mainly a lot of detail .

Dave, I think this is one of my favorites yet. I don't respond much when you post these paintings but I enjoy seeing the progress. Thanks for sharing.

Like the perspective and the stinkeye warning Dave. Great 3-D like detail in the brushstroked fur also.

 

[spook12]

Yep, this one is shaping up to be my favorite.

 

[pseshooter300]

That is looking good just curious you ever painted any turkey's?

 

[DaveHawk]

Pse looking for Turkey scenes . I did one a few years ago. Not the best.

 

[DaveHawk]

Moving a long on this guy.

Very nice. I Love to watch it come to life.

Cool. You have a gift, that's for sure. Your next painting should be of a mule deer I killed. Bring him back to life on canvas!!!! : ).
