Three new paintings, small efforts in oil or acrylic on canvas. They’re all 6:x6″ on canvas. These two mediums paint very differently, so in some ways this was a comparison to getting two root canals. I seem to be settling into the acrylic mode for now since I’m also involved with a long list of park projects, all painted in acrylic except the Salmon Cascades which is in oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All are currently available on my Etsy Gallery, but probably won’t last very long. https:\/\/eifertgallery.etsy.com<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The top one of the little red-backed vole: I was doing research on this little guy and realized I’d never actually made a proper painting of these really common forest critters. I see them in my own forest all the time, but usually running for cover. I put a Claytonia in bloom to show how small the vole really is. https:\/\/eifertgallery.etsy.com\/listing\/4579817302\/red-backed-vole-larry-eifert<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

This is a painting of Salmon Cascades in Olympic National Park. Just to the left is one of my wayside panels with a painting of what’s under the water here, salmon swimming in circles waiting to jump. Countless people have photographed that panel after not seeing any salmon. Now here’s a little painting of the same place. https:\/\/eifertgallery.etsy.com\/listing\/4573415041\/salmon-cascades-larry-eifert<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

And a little 6″x6″ of a savannah sparrow, another research painting for a park project. Savannah’s are close cousins of song sparrows, the little yellow patches the only clear giveaway of who it is. I like the shift of color from sunny side to shadow blues and greens. It’s available here. https:\/\/eifertgallery.etsy.com\/listing\/4578778921\/savannah-sparrow-larry-eifert<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
