I spent time today to finish both the sea turtle painting and the octopus with pirate theme.
I don't have a photo of the background for the turtle; it's just a reef with coral.
I am pleased with both of them, although I still have cutting to do on the turtle.
The weather has not been cooperative, making it difficult to get to the scroll saw to cut out the pieces.
So, I paint them and will cut, sand and finish the edges afterwards.
Obviously, it's better to do finish work first so the mounting to the tray can take place.
After mounting, the holes must be filled in and painted if needed.
It's a bit of a challenge, but I think I'm up for it.
This tray is another 16-inch tray ready now for its dimensional piece to be added.
I am always happy with manatees, the sea cows of the water.
They are just so majestic in their floating.
So comical with their faces.
So still in danger from boat strikes and cold stunning.
They are amazing creatures to watch and I'm happy to paint them!
