Started a new painting titled Summer Stacation. This is probably the first time

I've toned a canvas green....it's supposed to make the red in the skin tones POP....

and it looks like it does. On the left you can see the reference photo - received a tablet

holder for my birthday and it works perfectly attached to my stand-up palette.Before

I was balancing the tablet on top of the turpentine container.....and it was starting to

get smeared with paint.

This is the first pass with paint and the legs are already looking contoured. Love this

stage of a painting....it always holds so much promise....soon to be dashed...but at

least there's hope in the beginning that it will be a Masterpiece!
