Waking

I’ve finished this painting and I’m very happy with it. So now I’m on to the next painting which is already in progress.

I’m so close to finished with this painting that it was hard to stop this session. Alas, my schedule is packed daily so I had to put the brush down.

Every session I follow the same process after I finish painting and it mostly consists of me struggling with photographing my wet painting and removing glare.

As I work further into this painting it seems that I accomplish nothing but subtle changes, even after two hours each session.

Yeah, an odd title for a post. I’m slowly rendering this figure creeping from left to right. Hence the title.

This session went very well while I was painting feet. I was able to focus and really take my time.

I’m not sure exactly what was happening with this session but I was feeling a little lost and couldn’t figure out the complexity of this foot and leg.

I was mistaken in thinking that my current palette of paints dry in one day so I was having issues with wet paint pulling away from the canvas.

Well this painting is progressing much faster than the last already. I spent two hours on it today and I already have a full block-in.
