I have been creating a preliminary drawing for each painting before I begin to paint. It allows me to breathe a little, to evaluate, and then to carefully map out a composition and a value struture before I begin with paint.
6"X 6" Oil Ampersand Gessobord $125.00 I'm ready to chill out after this one. It was really HARD! So many petals going all different ways. I am pleased with the results. I have to laugh at myself....I thought of showing a step by step process in the painting of this peony....but....never looks like anything until the last few strokes! I am happy with this painting however I got here. This painting is found here :
