'Doe at Dawn' - New & Final Painting by m.l.holton for 2015

'Doe at Dawn' - Acrylic by m.l.holton,, unframed

Inspired by a photo image that was swirling around the net, I liked that image and zapped it a la mlh. 

Happy enough with the result, though that that lifted hind leg will always bug me ... 

Here are some preliminary photos of the work in progress showing the undersketching, 

and a change in the background colouring ... Lotsa Serious Fun.

Underpainting, note that hind leg is better here ... arg.

ALMOST done, but changed the centre mountain 'blue'.... darkened it up.

If interested in purchase and size, please contact the artist.

Paris. Nous Souviens.Toujours.

After initial news of the horrific attacks that occurred in Paris, France, on Friday, the 13th of November, 2015, broke, the 'plugged in' world quickly rallied in solidarity. Most potent was the viral spread of this iconic symbol. Drawn hastily while news of the attacks continued to come in, by Jean Jullien, a Frenchman now living in London, it immediately became the 'badge' that global strangers could share their common humanity, their deep concern and their heart-felt empathy.

PARIS. NOUS SOUVIENS. TOUJOURS.
