Going darker and darker. Funny how it never works to start so dark to save myself the trouble of layering. This is two more days' work.

Just laying in more darks today, bit by bit.

My (Inner) Child Did This

And now for something completely different. Ten or eleven years ago, a package of my early tropical paintings was lost in transit and never recovered. I wanted to revisit my favorite of them, painted in a more primitive style than I've been doing lately. This is just the underpainting so far, but it's fun to work so loosely for a change. It's 27 x 40 inches, on canvas.
