The Statue Challenge
28 Feb
This week’s DPW challenge is statues. A few weeks ago, I spotted a stone lion behind the iron fence of a courtyard in downtown Covington, LA. I only had this morning to paint so he’s cropped to a head shot and only 4″. Oil on panel.
You can see him hanging out with his friend Padma the elephant on my Facebook page.
