Moonlighting - step I... Back at clashing black and grey with colors...

Last year I did a prototype painting that left me on my appetite. I decided to proceed with a second painting using the "Muse" as my model...

 ... with the intent of leveraging a black and white underpainting as the foundation for a more colorful rendition... somewhat akin to a Chinese black ink approach. This is a 30 X 48 canvas.

Note: The "Muse" looked lethal, in the reference photo I'm using for this painting... something I want to capitalize on!

Note to self: "I want to get off the beaten path!"
