Title: Wild Fire Artistry...this one is from Africa
Post by: Hooked on November 11, 2009, 11:14:00 PM
If the powers that be don't mind, I thought I would post pics of this one as I go...

Started a new piece over the last couple days.  Just getting going, so much not to see yet! Doing it for a Tradgang member from Canada, Konrad.

Sorry for the delay in updates!  I finally got a chance to get out in a treestand myself this weekend.  I have worked on it some, just haven't had a chance to take pics and post them.  Will get fresh pics up tomorrow!

Also, Wild Fire Artistry is not just hunting pics...

This is my daughter and her first trip to the beach.  There was a beautiful sunset.  Not quite done with it yet either.

Can't figure out why the pics are white sometimes and yellowish the others.  I am sure it has to do with my camera and lighting, but I like the whiter pics better because I think they are truer to the actual color.

Anyway, here is current status...

Sorry, Buff!  Soon!  I titled it the way I did because I wasn't actually sure what this was...kinda like I called your Cape Buff a Water Buff, LOL!  I didn't want to be wrong!  Turns out this is an Impala Ram.

I don't know why man, but these choke me up.
I see them several hundred years from now, preserved and cherished, in the china cases of all the families you touch with your God given talent and grace. I'd love to see the day when I can commission you to capture my family in a similar fashion.

Thank you.
