Zebra painting is completed; plus two requested painting paintings of trains

You Might recall a few post ago me mentioning working on a painting of some zebras.... well the pieces is finally complete. I originally wanted it to go with the peeled acrylic collection I've been working on but after working on it a while I decided it would be better not to add the acrylic peel pieces. I am very happy with how it turned out. The image I referenced was one of a mother zebra in the background and her young-in' in front of her. My goal in this piece was to have the two blend together. It gives that feeling of continued connectedness.

A dear friend of mine has a three year old son who just loves trains. She requested that my sister and I make some paintings for her to put in his room of trains. (I have a twin sister who also is an artist). So to complete this project my sister and I decided to do something we never have done before expect when we do street painting... we worked on both pieces together, taking turns adding, adjusting, etc. both paintings. As an artist this is not an easy thing to do. Relinquishing control of your piece to another person to see them make changes.. and sometime changes you may not agree with. It was a fun process; luckily. We worked well together and encouraged each other to make adjustments and would give each other feedback. We are truly happy with the outcome and so was our friend who requested them.
