Toned canvas
Adding some structure - in a purple wash
Some background & middle ground added in
Adding more into the middle ground and foreground
Adjusting and adding cool colors into a basically warm color scheme
This painting is taking shape. What isn't so visible in these photos is the toned canvas still having its presence seen in a number of places.
Especially with the warmer tones showing through, it gives an interesting contrast in a variety of places.
Lots of painting has to do with "listening" as I work and making adjustments and choices that I didn't see coming. That's what makes it exciting and mysterious!
