Conquest of Loneliness - 7

The grisaille of the rock pillar in progress...

Conquest of Loneliness - 6

Am hoping by end of the day, this part will be finished, and on to the rock pillar......

Conquest of Loneliness - 5

Slow going, but making progress..........

Conquest of Loneliness - 4

 The interior of the tree is antelope brown...

This is viewing the whole board, seeing how the tree and ledge are placed... that is red earth for the ledge...

Conquest of Loneliness - 3

 The 'two colors' are lemon yellow and raw sienna...

Conquest of Loneliness - 2

having finished the foreground grisaille, am not in the process of glazing color over it before proceeding further...   for the leaves, am using sap green, emerald green, light green, and lemon yellow...  am presently using antelope brown for the wood, and anticipate at least two more colors to be glazed over before moving on to the rock pillar mid ground...

and yes, that is a crow quill nib being used...

Conquest of Loneliness - WIP

 New project, a sequel to the old mural Curse of Loneliness... the original was on pre-primed roll canvas, with acrylic paint - 4'x8'...

The sequel will be on acid-free foamboards and using FW Acrylic inks, and intend this to be two 30"x40" boards, making a diptych... [tho might have to change the board sizes to 27"x40" so can get frames to fit - will see]...

As soon as the grisaille of the foreground is down, will get on with revising the rock pillar behind, giving it growth....

but will also begin glazing colors over the foreground, thus doing this in sections, rather than  the full grisaille and then glazing colors...

"Watered World" - 25

And Watered World is finished...............
