We are big fans of the Yellowstone series. My favorite characters are Rip Wheeler and John Dutton. With the season finale of Yellowstone coming up I decided to do a time-lapse of painting Rip Wheeler just for fun. Here’s how he turned out:
It’s funny…I’ve never had so many people comment in my store on what I was painting as I did on this piece. Apparently there are a lot of Rip Wheeler fans in the world! Below is the painting time lapse:
These past few months have been so busy I feel like I only get a little of everything done that I want to. I have spent the majority of my time painting and started keeping track in September and I counted that I’ve painted 164 paintings, 209 ornaments and 182 additional pieces of art (block prints, magnets, shingles etc). That’s all I really want to do right now is paint and create…so it’s really hard to make myself sit down and write or upload. I’m taking a little time off from my store this January to try and organize my life a little. My first project is printing off family photos from 2021. (You can see my new method for managing family photo printing here!)
I love Rip and your painting really captures his character! I am going to be visiting my daughter in Hendersonville NC Jan. 15th – 20th. I told her the one thing I have to see when I am there is Bryson City, specifically your store! I know you just said you are taking time off from the store in Jan, but I hope, hope, wish you would be there even for a short time on one of those days!
Please email me if you can work it into your schedule. Hugs, Lynn
