Vintage Woman

I think I’m done. And I might have a new purpose for it.

Misty mountains, fallen trees, one brave survivor. Done with Cray-Pas Expressionist oil pastels, so the color palette isn’t the best. Seems like all my work is geared toward backgrounds lately. Building up the grassy area today, then I think I’m done

Well didn’t quite reach my goal of finishing this today but not far off. A la Bob Ross, I’ll put in the big tree tomorrow.

Because of the work I put in yesterday, I can afford a day off today. It’s not done but the values have been established per the value study. Just need the details. I got an idea for a unifier while in bed last night.

Show up, do the time, don’t go home until the job is done. Now I can go to bed.

Building depth..

Today’s sketching and thumbnails and compositions and ideas.

I like this now. It’s a roadmap to where I want to go. Now to work on the color. I hate color.. It’s my Achilles heel
