Red Ball Painting-#3

The Red Ball-#3

6"x6" oil on Raymar Panel

$150

Here's another one of my Red Ball series. This one was so fun to do and it went so smoothly, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Maybe it was the new

Raymar Panels I ordered. A pleasure to paint on. I just noticed I forgot to put the highlight on the ball. I'll do that tomorrow. I could use some help naming these. I'd like to come up with simple one word titles for them. If you have any ideas, let me know.
Thanks for looking.

Boy and Ball Series #2

A Boy and His Ball/#2

6"x6" oil on panel

$125 plus $8 shipping

I can't believe how much time I spent on this little guy, trying to get his mouth the way I wanted it. In the reference photo he has a playful, happy look on his face with his mouth open and tongue kinda sticking out. I have failed in capturing that look, rather, in my painting he looks a little upset. I have spent so many hours on it already, for such a small painting, I'm going to just accept the fact that painting people with their mouths open is beyond my skill level for now, since I am really pretty new at attempting to put people in my scenes. Hopefully, by the end of this series, I will be better at it. The model is my little Grandson, Xavier. He was two and half at the time this was taken.
