Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together yield themselves up when taken little by little.

Holiday Glow

 

I had a bit of panic at the end of this one with the tree on the right, but I dashed in with some green at the end and saved the depth of it. Whew!

Last Break

 

This is my last break before I finish it up. I'm making my final considerations about color choices and composition.

Posting my progress to the web site here helps me look at it from a fresh perspective and see what problems I might have that I might not otherwise see. On a complicated painting like this one, such a practice is a good idea and prevents serious problems. For example, I would not have caught my error in the window angles had it not been for publishing the scanned image.

Half-Done

 

I love painting. I'm halfway on this one... having a great time.

Time for new palette paper. I've worn this one out.
