I feel like I've gotten a lot done in just a few days, but that I have sooo much more to work on. Little things that all add up to making the painting incomplete. More work on clothing today. Mostly just making wrinkles. Then trying to make fingers look like fingers and legs look like legs. There's so much blending to do... so very much. Didn't get a chance to fix the little girl's face, but I will. She looks funny, I know. She's just standing in the back, looking at me saying: "When are you going to make me look like a cute little girl and not a monkey???" Mostly, I took a lot of time making a really ugly teal background into a nice dark gre
en that I like. I want it to look like they were in front of a green background so I put shadows behind them. The white sheet was entirely too white for such a dark background, so I'm adding grays so there isn't such a huge contrast. I don't want to make the sheet any color though. I need to add color on the flowers of the girl's dress and bows in her hair. Absolutely everything on the canvas needs to be blended. It's all pretty choppy looking, but coming together. I'll be done with this painting on Sunday no matter what.
