Lots of painting today brings an enormous update. This was as fun a day as you can have inside on a cold day!
Your wife loves you. She supports your hobbies. Also, cats make good sources of magicians’ wards.
NO. NEVER SIDE BY SIDE.
Undercoats. This is almost wash consistency. Treat it like a watercolor.
The joy of toothpicks. They’ll help us do some quick paint chipping with foam.
I’m starting to block in colors and develop light effects, which will be a major feature of the piece.
Now that’s a big brush!
Almost looks inviting…
Bricks.
Yellow paint on the plaster.
Sketching light effects on the door.
I’m trying to create interesting viewing angles with dramatic effects.
I’m very pleased with this gross stuff down in between the cobblestones.
Ew.
Sort of weird looking, isn’t it?
You should see it at night! What are those creepy locals getting up to in there?

This was so much fun. No time for doubt. Lots of great music. Go!
I’m really happy with the progress I made today. Much less worried about getting it out on time.
