11x14 oil painting of camel with a knowing smile. This is from a photo some friends took while on a trip in Nepal. I first did it in colored pencil, then in oil...my first oil painting in years! Copyright 2003, Anne Kelty.
Nothing like the Lovely smile of a Camel...what a Fantastic use of bold and free brush strokes...I enjoy the movement...Great colors too. Wonderful work...Anne! Glad to see you are in the groove.
this is my favorite of your portfolio anne... freer in brushwork and vibrant colours, the dark top corner and light bottom corner.. great direction... : )
