In Progress

Leave a comment

A few photos of my current painting in progress.  Focusing on the rainforest for this one, specifically the Amazon and its flora and fauna.  Also wanted to work on a larger piece, so this one is 20″ wide by 20″ high.  It’s heavily detailed courtesy of all the leaves and tree branches.  Not to mention full of white-faced capuchin monkeys!  The sketch on paper maps everything out before I transferred it to canvas.  The painting itself is an acrylic on canvas.  I’m still working on the rainforest background at the moment, and the blue morpho butterflies.  Butterflies may be small, but they are hugely symbolic in my work.

Dodo painting in progress by Amy Guidry (detail); Acrylic on canvas; 20″w x 10″h; (c) Amy Guidry 2018

Making some progress on my current painting.  I’m working on the details of the dodo bird’s face and feathers at the moment.  There’s still a little work left to do on the background, but I just had to work on the dodo.  I took some artistic license on the details.  For example, adding folds of skin around the eyes and wrinkles.  All the old illustrations and even the model recreations give him a completely smooth face, but after looking at tons of various bird photos, I decided against that and made my own interpretation.  This is just a close-up photo- the entire painting is 20″ wide by 10″ high, and is an acrylic on canvas.  More details soon.  You can view the rest of this series here: https://amyguidry.com/gallery.html.

Closeup shot of the progress on my latest painting.  Finished the flowers, currently working on the bear’s fur.  With all that hair, I’m going through a lot of tiny paintbrushes on this piece!  This painting is an acrylic on canvas, 12″ by 12.”  Hoping to finish this one soon and reveal the finished piece.  Get the first look at the finished painting by signing up for my monthly newsletter here: https://amyguidry.com/contact.html.

“Systems” by Amy Guidry; acrylic on canvas; 6″ x 6″; SOLD; (c) Amy Guidry 2013

My painting Systems from the In Our Veins series has recently found a new home.  It is an acrylic on canvas, 6″ x 6.”  I had posted a progress shot of this piece awhile back showing where I had left off with it.  I put this one on hiatus for over 2 years before revisiting it and finally completing it.  Sometimes it just takes a step back to suddenly see everything clearly.  View the finished painting online here: www.amyguidry.com/systems.html.

Tree of Life

I’ve recently finished another new painting in the In Our Veins series.  It’s titled Tree of Life and it is an acrylic on canvas, 4″ wide by 6″ high.  The idea for this one was from one of my earlier sketches, though I modified it a bit and added the moths.  View the painting online here: www.amyguidry.com/tree-of-life.html.

“Nurture” by Amy Guidry; acrylic on canvas; 4″ x 4″; SOLD; (c) Amy Guidry 2013

I’ve added a new painting to my In Our Veins series, which also quickly found a new home after featuring it in my recent newsletter.  Nurture is an acrylic on canvas, 4″ x 4.”  Nurture comes from one of my original sketches for this series and was perfect for the smaller canvas size.  I comb through my sketchbooks on a regular basis looking over ideas I’ve saved and reworking others.  I’d say about 95% of the paintings I do come from sketches I’ve created well in advance since I typically work on one painting at a time, hence the need to save ideas in my sketchbook.
