Gung Hay Fat Choy! Happy Chinese New Year! Happy Year of the Ox & Lunar New Year! Original Muskox Musk Painting...

 

Gung hay fat choy! Happy Lunar New Year!  It's the Year of the Ox this zodiac year and this fluffy muskox and I at lisabellarusso.com would like to wish you a wonderful year.  

I am not quite done with this painting of a musk ox, it needs a little bit more love, so it isn't available quite yet (I'll do another post when it is).  I like to paint the zodiac animal of the year in honor of Chinese New Year.  I also love painting animals, so these are always a joy to paint.  I haven't come up with a title yet for this cutey, so if you have any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

Year of the Muskox Chinese New Year Musk Ox WIP Work in Progress Rough Sketch / Art Sketch Daily #dailysketch #draweveryday...

 

Every year, I try to paint the Zodiac animal of the year for Chinese New Year...  February 12th will be the start of year of the ox.  Right now I've started with a rough sketch of a muskox.  It is a work in progress at this point. I love to paint fluffy fur and this musk ox has plenty of that!  I am looking forward to taking this further.

Most of my art is also available on my website at lisabellarusso.com; however, on the first Tuesday of the month, I like to put some art prints and LE ACEO prints on ebay at a lower promotional rate for the duration of the auctions...  This month, my theme is a selection of some of my Chinese New inspired animal art (I hope to finish this piece by next month and share some additional Zodiac animals on the 1st Tuesday of February) and others; you may see them here.
