A new painting just started! After a visit to a beautiful garden area - and a number of photos taken of the multicolored pots of flowers in full bloom - I was inspired to get to work in my studio.
I've started on 8x8" gesso board - using very light transparents to show the general shapes and placement of the composition.
Adding in, now, some of the darker values to show more about shapes and shadows.
Beginning to sculpt shapes with values behind and around the lighter shapes of the foreground
Adding in local colors and finding some values within them.
This painting is obviously still progressing. A finished photo will come next.... But the process is always interesting to see how a painting starts and how it progresses.
