Yikes

Big Yikes
I got a bit carried away and now my piece is in dire need of help.

Yesterday


Today...

There was a step before this when I added gesso.  Some of the white is visible above.

Added some black and removed some black.  In general made a mess.

Fortunately I saved the girl and now I still need to make a face for her and do something about the background.  In other words: redo just about everything.

Now to draw a bit in hopes that I can figures out an appropriate face for her.  Or perhaps she won't have a face.  I guess that is still to be determined.

  1. You could almost have stopped at stage 2 - although all of them are interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing the girl emerge. That's what is so fascinating about painting - the picture seems to be hidden and waiting to be discovered.
