Today, I worked on a couple of paintings including one from some photos that I took around Kennebunk. That’s one of them on the right. I’ve combined elements from several photos in the tone sketch that’s the basis of the painting.

Yesterday, I did a rough sketch on canvas board, and then I added a wash of cadmium red medium as the underpainting.

Today, I’ve scrubbed in some of the colors to get the painting started. That’s it, at left. The underpainting shows through; some of it will still be visible when the painting is completed, but not like this.
