I continued to lay it down and carve it out on this giant study of eleven green apples. Transition colors seem to be brightening up a bit, and things seems to be leaning toward the warm side, with everything becoming more about the transition colors from green to orange. As the paint sets up and becomes more and more like chewing gum, I’m very close to being done with this piece. I’ll have a final look in the morning and see if anything jumps out as needing attention before I scratch my name in and move on. Even though I’m fairly exhausted from some long days of standing at the easel I’d have to say that overall this piece has come together quickly and smoothly.
