Takhi Mare, Hustai National Park, Mongolia 8x10 oil on canvasboard
I’m running a little behind, so I’ll cover the art stuff that’s going to Mongolia with me next week. In the meantime, I think I’ve solved the hot-water-in-the-ger-problem with a nifty little “stove” that uses solid fuel cubes and is specifically ok for use in tents. More later once it gets here.
I thought that I would share a few images of the creation of this study.

Initial drawing and shadow shapes

Adding the medium tones and basic hues

Putting in a background tone

Modeling the form and refining the drawing

Correcting the shapes and working on the background

And...the finished study!
As usual, there was a cat working hard, right near by:

Persephone, aka The Princess
