SOLDWell, here's the finished painting. Like I mentioned earlier, this is quite a bit larger than my normal paintings. I enjoyed the process of going large. It's different than doing a smaller painting. While working on smaller paintings I can spend all of my time sitting at the easel. With a large painting I kept having to get up, walk across the room to look at the progress. When you're close to this painting, it looks kind of like an abstract. You see just shapes and colors, but when you get across the room, it all comes together and looks pretty realistic. Enjoy.
I'm working on a much larger painting than I usually do. This one is 18" x 24". I'm not sure how long it's going to take so I though I would post some progress shots. Here it is partially "blocked" in.
Here is the completed "block in". It's still pretty rough looking. My goal on the first pass is to just get the surface covered with color then go back over it to refine it. I will be posting this on ebay when it's complete. If you have any questions or would like to inquire about purchasing this before it goes on ebay just send me an email. jclapp@jclappart.com
