As a man thinketh in his heart; so is he. Proverbs 23:7

"Rejoice in the Lord alway: [and] again I say, Rejoice.

Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord [is] at hand.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things. " -Philippians 4:4-9

July works in progress....







Finis.

I finally finished these studies (left) and signed them. I've left them to compare.




These shells are suppose to be one hour paintings quick-ees but for the life of me I just can't get anything done in hour.My plan is to keep doing these until I quite obsessing for perfection. The little pink shell just needs some highlights and I am done with that one. The yellow shell has about three hours on it. I am improving my speed though.

These are beautiful! I love the backgrounds--I have been paying more attention to those because I have such a hard time with them. Your backgrounds really add to the composition and bring more attention to the shells. Good Job!
