Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.689

Hello again painting fans.

This week I will be continuing with the painting of the eastern shore Virginia Gothic house. The photo that I'm using is seen directly below. I'll be using my usual acrylic paints on a 6x6 inch canvas.

When last seen the painting appeared as it does in the photo seen directly below.

Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.

This week brings the painting much closer to the look that I had hoped for. The darkness of the porch provides a nice contrast to the gray siding. This is aided by the newly painted steps. Up at the roof edge, the white trim of the photo makes its first appearance. The signature gothic window is now dark as well. I'm please so far.

The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I'll have more progress to show you next week. See you then.

I didn't get done what I would have like but there is some progress. Note the upper level siding and window trim. Above, I've added the trim below the roof. Below, the telephone pole shadow now carries to the ground.

For this week's cycle I have started to fill in the back and foregrounds. These are all preliminary colors but serve to help me see where I'm going. Note the sky, lawn and foliage. I've also outlined the wires and lines of the building. A fair start.
