Butterfly Girl Step by Step
Pencil Sketch on a 24" x 24" box-type canvas The faraway greens... Flesh underpainting Some hair. Some eyes. Leaf underpainting. An upclose leaf. Not comfortable with the eyes placement so I covered it first. The eyes have it! Still more work to be done. October 9. Was able to get rid of nasty kid's chalk marks on the face. Torn chrysalis painted in white. Black butterfly painted in. Hopefully, the focus is in the foreground. October 10. Butterfly done! Added some bangs to Paloma's forehead. October 13. I thought it was finished but I muted the greens & yellows in the BG and colored the butterfly some more. October 26.
