And "Daphne" Shows - On Time......

"Sylvia" Finally Shows...

She had to attend an Oracle, so took some time before getting with the gang...

Bigger yard 44.....

And the blending has been done, along with greening the next rock projection...  as can be noted, most the greens are just the light green and emerald green, with just the sap on the far right edge..

"Jaynie" Has Outed...

After refixing her once smeared make-up, this swinging lass has made it to the line-up...

Bigger yard 43.....

The Sap green is now laid, and next is to blend into a curve the foresting...

Bigger yard 42.....

And, since the right section is in good shade, like the greens on the left section of the work, darkening that part is needed first before laying color on that...

Bigger yard 41.....

The coloring has begun - first the light green,

then the emerald...

"Hermyown"...

...has  gotten ready to join the gang...

"Luceille" is done...

...and very devilishly joins the gang...



[BTW - "Mabel" informs me that I mis-spelled her name - it's "Mai-belle"...]

Bigger yard 40.....

And the last section of this grisaille section has finally been done... so now - on with the coloring...

"Mabel" is done...

The first one is now done...   there will be more refinements when the others are in, but this will do for now...

Transferring...

Instead of waiting until can get the wanted frame, have gone ahead and did a transfer of the image to the end of a Stonehenge sheet, so to allow working on it as well leaving an open-endness to the final size of the rendering...

"The Hookers of Belview Lake"... WIP

As a break from routine, am starting a still-life in colored pencil of lures...

Bigger yard 39.....

Almost there, just one more rock to get down... then the grisaille is done and coloring can begin...

Bigger yard 38.....

Had to fight some dragons before could continue with this, so not get much done...   still , managed to get the lush garden down...   now  to get on with the overhead rock and the eagle house on top, overlooking everything...

Bigger yard 37.....

And the foresting is, except for the shadings, done...

Bigger yard 36.....

The past few days, my hand has been quite achy, so progress on this has been a bit slower than wanted...  still, some rendering has been accomplished with the foresting...   when it, and the last garden [the lush one] is finished, along with the crag of rock on which sits the 'eagle' house overlooking everything, then this section will be done in grisaille, and the coloring can begin...

Bigger yard 35.....

One more garden to go - the lush one [where the waterfall is impacting thru the hole], then they're done, leaving the forest on the right to do, and the 'eagle' house above it all, overlooking it all...  and that section be grisailled...
