Skagit geese are coming in for a landing

18 Jan Skagit geese are coming in for a landing

I’ve been delighted to not have ruined Skagit Snow Geese so far.   Instead of going into a long compulsive period, like I’m still in with Bottle Beach, I want to get this into the store ASAP.  I think I’ll get the painting shot on Wednesday if I can and put a frame on the original and bring that in.  Then I’ll have it in three sizes of prints at the store including a giclee 18 x 24 for $25.  That’s if I don’t mess it up.

I put it in Photoshop and auto-colored it, which tells me where it’s too yellow, I should be able to fix that, but it’s always crucial to keep yellow in anything so I don’t want to overdo removing it.

I did this Pacific-slope Flycatcher for a Cheasty ad, see News.  

Bobcat and Shadow.  Is there any way to add more to this?  I’m stuck, as I am with the Cougar I did in the same vein.  I’m going to dink around on it some more and decide if I can or should add a background.  If it doesn’t work, I could always Photoshop it back out.

I’ll spare visitors another shot of Bottle Beach that I’m working on again.  Realistically, I haven’t doen anything that will make it look all that different.   I’m also still working on Poulsbo, but that’s getting near done.
