Progress...



I've made some progress in my painting commission this week. Hard finding the time! Kids are on a two-week spring break, so it will be sketchy. Just wanted to show you the work so far. My client wanted some kind of street scene, cafe scene - something with people and color. It needed to be a vertical for a 40x30" for the space the client wants to put it. I've reworked the right side tables and people 4 times now finally getting them positioned with the right perspective. I will be adding a few more people and action more in the background and will be working the architectural elements more, too. I'm trying to keep it loose, colorful, and with fun textures...

Sis, I think it looks awesome! From what I can tell, it has great texture/scumbling up in the tops of the buildings, etc. I love that! The people look great too--you conguered the scale/perspective issue. And the tables look great too. Nice work!
