Wolf Family Illustration from Country Music's Greatest Lines by Bobby Braddock


What in the world is this about? This illustration is in a book about country music? We decided not every drawing had to have people, sometimes animals get the idea across just as well. To find out what the song is, you might want to buy the book, Country Music's Greatest Lines, which is available at arcadiapublishing.com, amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, and bookstores (See the cover in the righthand column). I really enjoyed drawing this illustration of a wolf family with the proud dad overlooking the scene.

Beach Sunrise, Oil Painting on Canvas Panel, 10x8 Seascape

 


We may be trapped inside for months, but there is always the beach, as long as it isn't crowded. Early morning people tend to be true beach lovers, with a true appreciation for being in a beautiful place.

Purple and Yellow Iris, 8x10 Oil on Canvas Panel Flower Painting




When we were staying in the beautiful neighborhood of Lake Junaluska in North Carolina, I was fascinated by the flowers that we don't grow here in Florida, like these irises and the spectacular rhododendrons.

Turkey Creek, 8x10 Oil on Canvas Panel Landscape


In spite of being fairly quarantined, a lot has happened in the past few weeks that kept me away from the easel. I decided to do a Florida scene as a departure from all the faces I've been drawing. 

Did you think I could do a post without mentioning our book Country Music's Greatest Lines? Of course not! That would be a dereliction of my promotional duty.
