A Wolf in the Forest  16x20  Oils on canvas panel

This wolf is more threatening than the pair of wolves in the snow that I had painted before this. Maybe he's on the way to find Little Red Riding Hood or the Three Pigs to try to have a "snack".  :-)

The setting is supposed to be a fir tree forest but I don't know that I'm pleased with my tree effort. Anyone that has been reading this blog will understand that I don't much like painting plant things. ESPECIALLY trees! ;-)


The reference photo for this painting did, for sure, come from the BLM (Bureau of Land Management website. Lots of good public domain reference photos there.

Caught in a snow storm  16x20  Oils on canvas panel

I'm not sure where I saw the photo that led to this painting. Probably a BLM (Bureau of Land Management) photo. Their photo archive search page can be found here.

The photo was of the wolves in a snowy forest setting. I added the falling snow just because I could. :-) AND because I felt that it made the scene look even more cold that it probably is/was.

These guys appear to be more curious than threatening although the wolf on the right seems to be looking at me as if I'll soon be invited to be dinner.
