Into the Open (elk painting)

A handsome bull elk comes out of the dark woods into a sun drenched meadow... not a bird but wildlife nonetheless.
Equipment used
acrylic on board
What a lovely piece of work Peter - it is really beautiful - very well done indeed! (y)
 
A lovely natural looking piece Peter. The sunlit grass is particularly beautiful.
 
Congrats on this one, wonderful depiction of a woodland scene. Grasses are tremendously well rendered..
 
Thanks! This one took a while. I wanted the elk to be secondary and for the painting to be somewhat of a landscape... This type of habitat is one of my favorites so it was fun to paint!

Lovely composition - natural woodland amphitheatre, great use of colour and light. Looks destined for the limited edition market, Peter - excellent piece.
 
I like the way the elk being pushed to the back really makes its size apparent, set against the scale of the birches in front. Excellent work.
