on to the next........

at the moment, am working out ideas for two smaller works while letting the large one fully dry before adding the sky in and matte coating to a non-glare photo op...  the first is intended to deal with a lizard, probably another iguana, and a sparrow like bird - the one getting a bug from the other, and theme/titled "Out Reach"...  the other is probably going to be a colored pencil work, with a mouse climbing a hanging ikebana on a cracked wall, and theme/titles "Footholds"... fun pieces with less stress for a change...

second layer showed crease in canvas, so did a third layer mixing the blue with white - which revealed had forgotten to ink in the distant rock on the right side... which then was inked, and when dry will be colored...
