The beginning. I don't know how long this will take, nor do I care actually. It has begun. I think the longest I ever worked on a painting, or course off and on, was a little over seven years. It simply took me that long to solve the problems I had created for myself and to develop the skills I needed to finish it.
Moving on. This one appears to be coming in fast, but in so much a different way than I expected to do it. I expected to do my usual of the total form outline, then light shading here and there, then a little color, then form shading developing, then more color, etc. It did not go that way. This painting is just as impatient and demanding as is my dog Charlie. So, I am listening and following its orders. I am so surprised that I can almost see it finished as I started it. I will post updates as I can.
