Next Up...

...a 12x12" painting for a group show at RLS in October. This is the black and white reference photo used to trace shapes onto the panel.

After Finishing A Painting...

...I usually have a bit of paint left over. I save some (balled up on the glass to the left) for touch ups until the painting is varnished. The rest I use to paint my jar lids, here using the lily pad colors. It is a nice way to say goodbye to colors I've been looking at for months.

Almost Done!

There is still about a foot of painting off camera to the right that has yet to be completed, but I am definitely getting close!
