It's always a good idea to warm up to a medium. This was my warm up. I was driving from Kaupo to Nahiku the long way and stopped to paint this little w/c on the way. It shows the 3 correct primaries, transparent yellow, magenta and cyan.

I'm making a DVD movie of this painting. It started without any drawing other than thin paint. First I wet down the whole page to remove any extra sizing from the surface. While it was wet I laid in the lightest tints of each pattern and let it dry. That was my drawing.
 |
| From there I keep adding color to define shapes and shadows using a big #36 Goliath White Sable.
 |
| Here is a detail two and a half days into it. The deep shadow colors of green are magenta and green.
 |
| This is at the end of day two.
 |
| The end of day three.
 |
| The end of day four.
 |
| Yesterday it rained again, no painting. But I got a lot done today.
 |
| Today was mostly washes with the primaries.
 |
| A lot of detail and bush trimming today.
 |
| The right side is close to finished.

| We sat down to paint. Tom would be hand holding his and I'm using a table easle. By the time I got my drawing finished he was this far along.
 |
I was here and he was gone :) He's working on his house.
