Taking shape.....

Hard to believe there are hours and hours put in since the last time! But it's beginning to take shape. It probably helps me in that I have NO clue as to what it actually is that I'm painting! I know it's an engine of a custom cycle, but as to what each little individual pipe or wire is.....! It helps in that it requires me to focus soley on the shapes and their relation to each other, the values, etc. It will really look different when I put in the large darks, and also the areas of bright
green will make it look altogether different! I got a lot done one day last week, helped out by Turner Classic Movies! I had a lot I had to do that day, art business wise, plus the endless housework and yardwork that accumulates. However, I turned on the TV and found one of my favorite Hitchcock films, "Shadow of a Doubt" just beginning! That was it, I decided. So for 2 hours I put aside all distractions, painted like mad and listened to a great film. Maybe I can enlist in that channel to help me get more work done!!
