Fill Of Peaches

Tonight I stayed off the phone and on the scanner. Here is a dual sequence, starting from light to dark and dark to light respectively. It's a fun exercise, but quite time consuming and distracting. Basically, I didn't begin dark enough with the dark to light exercise and abandoned it after step five.

Oh, I drove the poor cat nuts. He's a real pal and hangs out with me so here I am running from room to room and he's trying to keep up. He lays next to me while I paint and tosses the vet about while I scan. Not the vet; his vet, that is. See below....

Peach Again

I intended to scan tonight's study a bit at a time but got lost in a phone conversation with an old friend. The plan would have been to drop in some cad yellow wet in wet in those white spots. In fact, it just might have looked fine stopping at that point. (I think that's what Judith alluded to in her yesterday's comment.) More to come! :-)


Shading still perplexes me. Perm mauve, pane's gray--neither satisfied. I liked rich perm aliziran crimson but only if I can keep the other colors in high key.

Poco A Poco Peach

Little by little. Taking my time. I have been rather rushing about lately, seemingly trying to get through a study, rather than taking the time to enjoy the process.

Here's a first shot at a peach. I need to work on form and color. There will be a new model tomorrow. Yep, this one was good eating! :-)
