I just shipped this painting of a grey squirrel to an exhibition in New England. The show will run through part of October at the Bennington Center for the Arts (www.benningtoncenterforthearts.org) as a part of their 6th annual "Impressions of New England" Exhibition. This is the first year I’ve been a part of this show at the arts center.
I liked painting this subject, though I haven’t painted many squirrels in the past. I like the fact that there are so many textures in the painting. It made it very interesting to paint.
My friend Phyllis would go "nuts" over this painting.
