Harpy- almost done

Thanks to some bleak days, I worked on Harpy this week and now it's almost finished. I tried to harmonize the colors and in order to do that, I had to change the colors of different objects several times. Now for the fun, and yes, tedious, time of making the borders.

Harpy Under Construction

Yesterday was rainy...VERY rainy...so I worked a lot on my harpy painting. She's coming along nicely and I'm figuring out the color combos as I go.

Harpy-the ugly stage

Here is Harpy in all it's ugliness. But of course, if I stick with it, it will eventually come around. I've been so busy with other 'stuff': setting up my new website, making new cards for the upcoming Pier Show in May. Harpy just sits there, looking nasty.
Oh, and here's the address for the new website:

Slowly but Surely

In the between time of starting that long painting and now, I actually had a paying job!!! Well, that seems to have dried up for the present, so I'm back in the saddle. I hate returning to something after the original energy has cooled, but I'm trying to fill in the little bits. It's rather complex and slow going so to give myself a break, I also started a smaller painting of a harpy. This is the first version. More later.
