Now that my butterflies are finished, I can really dive into the Wooded series I have started. I've already shown my red, textured canvases. Now I am slowly sketching out the scenery for each piece. These sketches are quite general in form right now to let me know where major trees, sky and rocks are. The first layer of paint is also very general but it's all about building up color to achieve the final look. Here are two of my sketches.

Until next time...
