Fall gourds, succulents, and oh...one of my cow paintings :D

I am starting another group of paintings on exotic and other hardwoods like cherry and maple.  The secret to seeing the wood is a clear gesso.  It allows the wood to be painted on while seeing some of the wood grain underneath.   Look for another blog post with some of the new paintings soon!

Check out some of my paintings on hardwood panels at ChristenberryCollections.   There are bird paintings on purple heart wood, cherry, maple, and birch. I used a clear gesso so parts of the natural wood grain shines through.
