Alpha Dogs and Seward

Although life has been hectic, I have had a little time to work on my latest painting, Alpha Dogs.
This morning I laid down a few basic tones on this wolf which will be the main focal point of the painting. So far I have encountered few problems with it except making the time to put forth my best effort.
This wolf is mostly finished.
We made a quick trip to Seward. It is a long drive.
Resurrection Bay was calm as glass for a while in the early morning.
Common Murres in their Winter finery.
A bunch of Barrow's Goldeneyes in the harbor.
More Barrow's Goldeneyes along the coast.
It's always good to see Surf Scoters.
A pair of Harlequins kept their distance.
And finally, a Yellow-billed Loon in Winter colors.

You've got some stunning birds in the harbour ! I like the wintry look of the road in the snow…. more fun to look at than to actually drive, I'm sure.

I was not driving so I could relax a little although the hazards, (avalanches etc) of driving through those mountains are real.
