Original Howling Wolf Painting - "Winter's First Call" 11x14 Countryside Scenes One of the favorite things

One of the favorite things for me is hearing the sound of wild turkeys early in the morning

In this painting I imagined the perfect evening with quite possibly the perfect setting

I wanted to capture those subtle yet vibrant color changes in the bird's feathers that almost seem iridescent

and miles of rolling farmland

Original Howling Wolf Painting - "Winter's First Call" 11x14 Countryside Scenes One of the favorite things"Winter's First Call" About this painting: A lone wolf howls into the blustery snow as Fall nears an end, and Winter approaches. I find wolves to be so inspiring. Perhaps it's the strong relationships they build as canines for one another or the bone chilling howls that break the night's silence. In any case these animals are a true testament to Mother Nature's brilliant work. I wanted this drawing to show the bond between a wolf and its surroundings,
