Step 1: first layer


This is my first oil painting since 2003! All in all, I think things are off to a good start. The first layer of paint is on. I began the second layer this evening and will post it later this week.

neck looks a little long. now's the best time to get in there and straighten it out.

I made it longer on purpose to add to the elegance of the pose. i think you'll see it come together a little more in the next couple of posts. :D

This is great Tara, I remember seeing the drawing, looking forward to the finish.
