Sorry about the quality of these images. I don't have a real camera (these are iphone pics) and the painting is too big for my scanner. Yes I know I could scan it in pieces and all that jazz, but who has time for that?! (I do not...as I type this I ought to be working on something else, but I get excited when I finish something!)
I know you guys like seeing the painting surrounded by the chaos of my table top...
That thing in the upper left corner is my color work book. I had to paint what felt like a billion swatches of different color combinations, plus shades and tints for each combo, for a painting class I took at city college. The class itself was pretty useless, but I've kept and used that color work book ever since. It's a super helpful thing to have, if you have the patience to make one.
