I don’t want to give away the surprise, so I’ll just post a sneak peek at one of my paintings currently in progress. This piece has a few tiny elements in the background that require a steady hand and practically microscopic paintbrush. The photo is a little blurry but you get the idea. I’ll be posting the finished painting soon. In the meantime, check out the rest of the series online here: http://amyguidry.com/wild_west.html.
