Have you ever had a painting haunt you? It hasn't happened too often for me, but this painting idea has been stuck in my head for over 3 years now appearing like a demanding apparition. In those three years it has changed almost as much as my young son. Now its time has come. Now I am ready to take it on...
I'm still working on a title (you think in three years something would have come to me by now - but this has been a particularly visual haunt). Here's the start:
Work in progress, oil on panel, 64" x 48"
detail, oil on panel, 64" x 48"
First day into color (detail).
