    Hi John!

    The Orange is now only underpained with Aryls. There will be a painting with oils on it (warmer tones!) - and after that a different pattern - like this...:

    Wait for the final result, please.

    Well - I think that's the border between "good" and "too much"!

    So the pattern stays now!

    In the coming week I will work around the figure step by step ...

    Oh yes - the colors still:

    This is all in the pattern ...:

    The new week begins as the old one ended: painting patterns!

    Today I have the pattern on the first front roughly laid out - the things really look, it looks like camouflage pattern on a tank of the Afrika Korps!

    The whole thing is not so easy because of the deep drapery...:

    When I just took the pictures and wanted to lay back and relax, I saw that I actually painted a mistake!

    If I pulled the wrinkles apart, then the marked element would be about twice as long as it should be...:

    [IMG]

    That will be corrected tomorrow!

    Hi Martin

    Youhave corrected the area at the front nicely

    For me the pattern seems to be settling down more now

    It's certainly going to be very colourful and this is a nice contrast against the uniform

    Thanks for sharing

    What seems to shine so blue on the red background there are some f****** shades of light from the daylight lamp directly above the bust!

    Tomorrow I'll start with part 3, then part 4 will follow, then the whole with oil paint ("Paynes Gray") will be veeeery carefully shaded - and then the lower edge comes in two more steps.

    By the end of February, I'll probably have it all done.

    Martin.....I think this piece is really progressing very well overall. The design work is looking impressive and I can see your vision of the overall finished piece. But on a short note I must say (and don't take this the wrong way)…..In some of the last pics the way you have the bust positioned at such an angle that I'm thinking she's looking at me thinking...….."Is there something wrong with you?"...o_O…..I my case? probably...……....In your case ? Your call.
    In any case I think everything is coming into place and look forward to the finished work.
    Regards,
    Wayne
