Two zebras in the works by Sandra Cutrer


I am working on this newest painting using another deep (2.5") wrapped canvas, 24" x 24" square. I really like these deep-sided canvases, top quality "3-D". The size is great, and really gives me plenty of space to create my focal point- the eyes! Painting the sides a dark hue gives it plenty of "frame" on the sides without taking away form the beauty of the animals faces. I really enjoy taking photos of animals up close, and especially being able to paint from those photos. I work on cropping them, getting the best composition possible in order to paint something that speaks to, not only me as the artist, but to the viewer. Animals need to be not only painted, photographed, and enjoyed., but cared for, loved, and kept from being endangered! I thought these zebras at the Birmingham,AL zoo were pure beauties! Stay with me to see the fianl painting-soon! If you'd like to purchase this painting, please contact me at sandrasart777@aol.com, or from my web site- sandracutrer.com.
