So far I've just been doing some sketches and color studies for possible images in the show. Yes I'm very behind and will be painting my tOOsh off the next couple days! But I'm happy and excited to do it :P Not sure what images I'll land on for the final paintings but thought I'd include folks in the process. I've been focusing on this spring season and the idea that the show opens on the Summer Solstice. Having fun with earth, flowers, mushrooms, and mud :) So far we have...

| UPDATE! Adding this color study for Pushing Daisies - I've started a background wash for this on an 11 x 14 board so I'm pretty committed right now! |
| Bouquethead or Unfurled - figure in full bloom |
| Ain't No Mountain High Enough - moving heaven and earth |
| Pushing Daisies |
| Mud bath, mushrooms, mud puddle |
These look super rainbow-esque but it's just because they are all together, I'm hoping for a much simpler result in the end. Also depends on the color choices for the second piece which I have also not decided on yet. It really is gonna be a lots-of-coffee-paint-sugar-and-no-sleep kinda week!
