Back to my commission...

I think it is good to be away from a painting for a bit.  When I pick it up again I have a fresh perspective and see things a bit differently.  

I am playing at stone masonry!  Building the column a stone at a time.
Light washes and then building the colors.

I added a lot more detail to the 1st column stones .

Started the underpainting wash on the 2nd column and roofline.




I now added a wash over the wood on the 1st column.
A warm wash over the wood on the 2nd column.
Stonework on the 2nd column.


I can "see" how it will look when I am finished and I am getting close to the end!
