for Tomorrow: |
 |
| The sketch onto the
canvas... |
 |
| The beginnings of
the face and flesh... |
 |
| A close up of the
details... |

| Patience
Lost: |
 |
| The sketch directly
onto the canvas... |
| Patience
Progress : |
 |
| The sketch directly
onto the canvas |
 |
| Because of the extreme
humidity I had to work slowly and even take a break to give the paints time
to take hold of the canvas. The wooden bed frame is pretty much done, tomorrow
I will dive into the fabrics and then shortly after, the turtle. |
 |
| A great deal more
detail has gone into the fabric and there's plenty more to come. My model
for the turtle/tortoise will be here this week hopefully so I can finish
that part of the painting with some accuracy. Until then I'm planning to
focus heavily on the folds in the fabric. |
| New
Painting Progress : |
 |
| The sketch directly
onto the canvas |
 |
| I spent a good chunk
of time working the the fabrics on the sheets and pillow. The camisole has
been underpainted and all the flesh has yet to be placed onto the canvas. |
 |
| Much of the fabric
is completed... the hands and flesh are slowly being worked in... |
| Equal

 |
| The sketch directly

| Discovery
Progress : |
 |
| The sketch directly
onto the canvas |
 |
| Much of the underpainting
is in place and some final skin tones are built up. Next in line is the
wood pattern for the background and the fabric on the top. |

| Escape
Progress : |
 |
| The sketch directly
onto the canvas |
 |
| Some of the underpainting
is in place... next step will be to pull together the face and skin tones
more... |
 |
| The face is more built
up and more skin-tone underpainting is in place... |
 |
| Close up of the face
- stillm ore work to be done here but much of the volume has been developed. |
|
| Waking
In Progress: |
 |
| The sketch directly
onto the canvas |
 |
| A good amount of underpainting
has been completed at this point and the wood in the background is nearly
finished. |
 |
| A close up of the
underpainting. |
 |
| Starting to tightend
things up a bit more... and the painting in the painting has started to
take shape. |
