I feel like the painting is a little weighty on the left. I need to balance it somehow. I’m going to give it a break for a bit and see what pops into my head.

The painting is starting to look more like my vision…got to wait for this layer to dry. Guess I’ll have some lunch.

I’ve had this vision of a painting I have wanted to do for a long time so I’m finally taking the plunge. The inspiration came from a TV show set backdrop…I wish I could remember which one.

Last night I grabbed a canvas that had the start of something else on it and began drawing.

I got the wall color blocked in before bed and did the window glass, the brick mortar and the base coat on the table so far today.

I hope to get a little more painting in today but it is VERY cold in the basement and will only get worse as the weekend wears on…we a in a deep freeze for the next few days…highs at aren’t expected to reach zero Fahrenheit all weekend and wind chills are -40F and lower.

I’ll keep posting my progress…keep in mind this is only the 2nd painting I’ve ever done. The first was a portrait…I’m pretty sure I covered over it with something else because the eyes were just too scary.
