Slow and steady

After working on the larger areas and establishing the major color shapes, I've decided to change my plan of attack and work systematically from one end to another. The reason for this change is purely for pleasure rather than ease of painting; working on one color at a time, while easy to do on smaller painting, is rather banal on larger works.
I'm anticipating the completion of the first paint layer by the weekend, and begining the final layers and tweaks Monday. These tweaks are to address, breakup and visually combine the difference compositional elements as well as add subtle complexity when viewed close up. This process is the longest and will show very little progress from day to day; with most of the work visible only as detail shots. However, it is in these small color decisions which will take the work to the next level.
