Just thought I would drop you all a post to show a tiny snow leopard painting I am working on at the moment.
Its 10 x 8in oil on canvas as per usual.
(The original painting is for sale contact me for details – jason@onlineartdemos.co.uk)
This 1st stage below show just how dark an underpainting needs to be, especially if you are working in layers. Too light at this stage and your next layers of paint wont show up.
Painting fur texture (below) is really not that hard, as I show in my wildfeart eBooks, but you do need to have a plan and be methodical – it really doesn’t take that long either, with my techniques the whole face texture took about 2 hours.
The photo below shows the painting 80-90 % finished. All I really have to do is add the very lightest highlights and do a few specific glazes of colour just to bring it to life. I hope you like this little study of a Snow Leopard so far.

Well the mounted prints I listed a few days before Xmas on Ebay seemed very popular, so I have decided to list a VERY small amount again.
As mentioned the printed are mounted, with an acid free backing board as well, so they are ready to slip in to a standard size frame and display – simple as that.
I am not sure how many of these small prints I will keep selling as they take away from my painting time, so get them while you can.
The prints are also available UNMOUNTED for international customers – please email me for details jason@onlineartdemos.co.uk
