Fire Fly Fairy

Size: 36" x 60"


It took 7 days and 1 hot summer to complete this one. Of course this is the painting above and what it looked like before I decided to go back in and noodle it some more.

Sometimes I forget how many times I've painted a lion or tiger.

Diceros Bicornis


Artist: Derek Hobbs
Medium: Coffee & Acrylic on Canvas
Size: 72" x 36"

In the end I added a few yellow billed ox-peckers to create a silhouette on the rhino's back. This peice bridged the gap from the fairy paintings into the start of a series of big game paintings. This painting also happens to be 1 of many double paintings, the other side contains an abandoned idea of what could have been a completed coffee painting.

Elephantidae No. 3


Artist: Derek Hobbs

Medium: Coffee & Acrylic on Canvas

Size: 72" x 36"

SOLD

I have painted this composition 2wice and each owned it's own unique spill patterns that can't be duplicated from 1 painting to the next. It is also the ability to manipulate the coffee medium as a vehicle during the application process that has earned it my attention and detail early on.
