Today, I started a preliminary study for a possible larger piece. I'm using a photo, but I'm making changes, a lot of changes. The photo is not a good one, so I'm being forced to add information. I'm experimenting with light and a limited palette that I've not used for a spell. However, I do have some help. Woody, my studio buddy is hanging with me today, and he is just chocked full of advice. We discuss what is happening on the canvas. In fact, he says that I need to simply start over with changes in the basic sketch. Sometimes I take his advice, sometimes not, but like any good friends we have that liberty. Our history as friends goes way back, so we often get side-tracked on non-related matters. He's a good listener.
