1st Lesson - Camels

We are still busy painting our thatched cottages, but in the meantime Jo and I have selected one of her Egyptian photos of camels to paint.  I've wanted to paint them since I first saw the photos.  I imagined them with the pyramids in the background, so we first had to roughly sketch a suitable composition on paper first.  I then went to Australia Zoo to gather more photos of camels to see more details.

So here is our drawing on canvas.  I still have to fill in some of the details from my own photos.
