Tampa beach scene step II... not sure where I am going with this one...


Using a bad brush to loosen up, I applied a second layer with no clear idea of where I was going. Like they say in marketing, if you don't know where you're going, you're likely to get there faster!

A stroke of luck for now: the sunshine from my studio window created a value pattern for the background that I did not anticipate. At least, I can follow suit on that... as for the figure, I will pray!

This is a 24 X 30 painting, so I would like like everything to stay loose... and look real detailed from 100 yards!
