Having gotten past the two feet section, am now getting the vegetation down, then will go over and detail - getting the textures and shading in, before going on with the next section........

"FUGUE"

Have finally begun work on the large scale pen and ink painting "Fugue" ...  while not yet got the mural easel up, have  instead been using the large board, unrolling and rolling the canvas as proceeding along...  the actual painting will be 3 feet high, with white below and above the work, and is hoped to reach the anticipated 8 feet length on completion...  initially am just outlining the visual, to go over in 2 feet sections the detailing of shading and texture once reach that length...

The Overflowing Cup 11

At LONG long last, have finally made an end of this.........

The Overflowing Cup 10

Progress on this has been slow these past few days, but the end is in sight - am on the cup, filling in with stippled cyan the overflow part and using sap green on the untouched section of the cup, now seen in progress... just needs finish this part, and touch up here and there over the work, emphasizing highlights and so forth - and will at long last have made an end of this...

The Overflowing Cup 9

Finished layering the red earth acrylic ink over the stone shelf, and am in the midst of layering process cyan to the overflow of the cup... there will be more layers to the shelf, so to bring it out more in intensity, the same with the tray and base of the bonsai... then the grisaille of the cup will begin, and coloring after, thus, hopefully, to end this ink painting...

The Overflowing Cup 8

Been stippling away at the curtain, finally finishing that last evening, and today managed a start on the shelf coloring, with red earth acrylic ink...
