3172: The Pear Tree, Drawing

3171: The Pear Tree, Session 9
I’m not spending a lot of time daily on painting so the progress on this painting is slow.
3170: The Pear Tree, Session 8
Working on the details of the face now and trying as hard as I can to understand the complex colors I see.
3169: The Pear Tree, Session 7
The super simple block-in for the whole painting is done. Tomorrow I’ll get back to details.
3168: The Pear Tree, Session 6
The best way to figure out a color is to also figure out the colors next to it.
3167: The Pear Tree, Session 5
I worked a bit more on the skin color trying to get a base to work from.
3166: The Pear Tree, Session 4
First layer on the face is close to finished and I’m moving outward into the background and down the body.
3165: The Pear Tree, Session 3
I’ve started painting and I’ve started with detail right away.
3164: The Pear Tree, Session 2
For this post and the next few posts I’m going to keep the text very short.
3163: The Pear Tree, Session 1
After some serious deliberation on my second morning walk I’ve come to a conclusion.
3162: Happiness One, Session 1
I spent most of my time today agonizing over subject matter and searching for photos.

Still fussing with the background.
3159: Vulnerability Four, Session 11
Back to Vulnerability Four and I’m experimenting with the background today.
3158: Vulnerability Three, Session 16
I’ve taken a lot of chances in this painting and pushed a lot of boundaries.
3157: Vulnerability Three, Session 15
I was hoping to finish this painting today but I think it will take a couple more days of work.
3156: Vulnerability Three, Session 14
I slept better last night and today I entered the flow state.
3155: Vulnerability Three, Session 13
Sleep has been a challenge lately and my brain wasn’t up to the challenge today.
3154: Vulnerability Three, Session 12
Much of the same today.
3153: Vulnerability Three, Session 11
I’m certain now that this is how I want to paint moving forward.
3152: Vulnerability Three, Session 10
I moved up to the hair of the figure. Working on detail and interest.
3151: Vulnerability Three, Session 9
More of the same but the images don’t show it.
3150: Vulnerability Three, Session 8
Stroke after stroke I keep adjusting and re-adjusting the subtle colors of the skin.
3149: Vulnerability Three, Session 7
I’m back to working on Vulnerability Three and I have a plan to infuse some elegance into the painting.
3148: Vulnerability Four, Session 10
This layer for Vulnerability Four is done. I’ll let it dry for a few days now.
3147: Vulnerability Four, Session 9
I’m not sure if I need to write anything about thing painting today.
3146: Sullivan Lantern
Instead of painting today I worked on a drawing of Sullivan for a floating memorial.
3145: Vulnerability Four, Session 8
I’m moving slow on CreateQuest development and slow on this painting.
3144: Vulnerability Four, Session 7
Another one hour session on this painting and lots more hours on CreateQuest.
3143: Vulnerability Four, Session 6
Another relaxing day on this painting. I focused on his hair, arm and hand.
3142: Vulnerability Four, Session 5
I had a wonderfully relaxing painting session today after lots of dev work on CreateQuest.
3141: Vulnerability Four, Session 4
My in-laws flew back home last night after a wonderful visit for a week.
3140: Vulnerability Four, Session 3
I spent most of my time today signing other paintings and little time on this painting.
