Not Out of the Woods Yet

But getting closer. My customer requested dark green in the background instead of a completely sepia-toned painting. Layer #2 is on the canvas, and it is getting better. This loose type of painting is REALLY HARD!! No, this loose type of painting that involves a face is REALLY REALLY HARD. Even if it were my normal tightly detailed style, painting faces is REALLY REALLY HARD. People, animals, whatever has a face is REALLY HARD.

Sorry. Guess I’m learning anew why it is called art “work” and not art “play”.

And, this won’t be finished until the customer is pleased. Then, I’ll paint the very thick edges, wait for it to dry, sign it, wait for it to dry, photograph it, varnish it, wait for it to dry. Then I will be out of the woods on this painting!
