and the commission continues

this week i have worked on the commission, changing the sky to blue, per request, with the Van Gough swirls of starry night and adding the details to the painting. The paintings are from my head and as i go i make up all the compostions...sharon asked for a picnic scene and another committee member asked for some people to wander into the painting...so all of this is coming together. I have been forced to work in the rental apartment ....much smaller space than i am used to but so far i think i am, ever though working at a disadvantage, pulling it off...will see. When you do a commission, the final judges are your customers. You have to be clear about what you can and cannot do...rabbits out of a hat ...maybe but not always.
Images will be posted later...adding Winston, the office mascot is next. He is a bulldog...Georgia Bulldog of course...and seems to really mean business when he poses in his doggie wide stance, muscle and sleekness. Of course i am sure he is mush inside.
