today's work on the judge


I am happy with what got done today. I am taking abreak and then going back to it.

I find that I work the whole panel at once with this piece. As opposed to the panel that I did for Le Cadeau du Cheval, I worked in sections.

I think that as I get more paint onto the surface that I will probably do it sectionally. Right now, I am trying to keep the whole united in temperature and color range.

Dropping in the first indications of shadows makes a big impact.

I am also happier with this cat's body shape than I had previously.

I have to flog myself to work on the foliage under the cat. It just is such a chore. I am happy with how the background is falling into place.

It's fun watching this one come together, Christine! Though I can't really complain about the weather around here right now, it's still like a mini-vacation looking at this scene! Mind you that cat probably knows more about dressage than I do! :-)

(sorry, blogger wouldn't let me edit my comment once I made it, so I had to delete it first time around!)
