The hand strumming the guitar needed fattening up, the widow told ne, Checking the reference photo, my eye told me the edges needed softening and toning down to pull it and the arm back to. the background. This is what kept me busy last week whenever my bum knee and out-of-whack back allowed, which wasn't enough. Disgusted with how long this painting is taking due to body aches and the tediousness of the Venetian process, which encourages procrastination, ( in the forms of pencil and oil sketches just to get away from it). I made an appointment to have my knee replaced and that appointment made me set a deadline: second week in June if not before! I am putting on a rush. I want this painting gone and I want to wear heels at my son's wedding in September. The wedding was the real cincher.
I'll post the finished piece as soon as I add my John Hancock.
