Here’s the progress I have made so far on my Alice painting…this is after 2 painting sessions.

Alice painting work in progress session 2

Working on canvas is refreshing…the 3 other paintings I am working on are all on panel, and although I enjoy some aspects of it, canvas is so much easier to blend on and such. The amount of progress I have made so far would not have been possible for me on panel. I’m also loving using yellow+black for the greens, it makes it really easy to match the shade if needed and to do shadows and highlights (just add more black/yellow). I also have a few different earth tones mixed in there too though to add variety.

Update:  this painting is done. To see the finished one and other Alice stuff, look at the Alice in Wonderland category.
