I have been captivated by shadows lately, and this painting is exciting to me because of the colors in the highlights and the shadow and how the shapes work. I really love Palm trees for their natural graphic shapes and wonderful colors. This painting is now "blocked in". Meaning the first layer of paint is on the canvas. This took me three days to do, that includes the drawing. This is a 30" x 40" painting, which is the size of my Grand Palm.I have 4 commissions left to do. My goal was to finish 6 of the 7 that I have right now by the end of May. I believe I may finish 2 more by next week, my Celebration painting took a little bit longer than I had anticipated. But I'm really happy with the outcome, so it was well worth it.
This will have to fit in between the other paying paintings, as many of these have deadlines. But I'll just keep plugging away.
