This Painting Is Finished!

Since my brain checked out, I'm afraid I'll have to call this painting finished! I've learned a lot from it. Next time I work with thin layers, I will paint an underpainting first. There were too many times when I had to go over a carefully laid down layer of paint, just because it was too transparent. It required double the focus.

Also, for the next painting, I will set a time limit. This painting dragged on for too long. Although I realize high quality realism takes a lot of time, I enjoy being expressive more. I fell into the trap of perfectionism.

Anyway, on to the next one!
