Revised Version of the Gorilla

This is a revised version of the Gorilla.....I still think it can be altered a little more but will wait a while and just keep it in sight to see what I can do to make it more real looking

A Gorilla

This Gorilla was painted in Faber Castell Pitt pastel pencils from a lesson by Colin Bradley in England......This one was very intricate and I know that I can do better and will paint it again when my confidence comes back to me for painting with my pastels...havent used them for some time now.

A Meerkat

I haven't done any painting for a few weeks due to me being in hospital and then recuperating, but this morning I picked up my Faber Castell Pitt Pastel Pencils and had a go at this Meerkat...I may be a bit rusty but at least I had a go.

This painting is taken from a lesson by Colin Bradley in England.....you can see some of his demos on You Tube ...he goes under the name of colin1940 if you are interested
