This piece is going to take some time to complete, and that’s okay, ’cause I really want it to be awesome. I’d like for it to be as hyperrealistic as I can possibly make it, just to push myself a little harder like I do with every piece, but I think even moreso with this one. I’ve been wanting a challenge like this one since I finished Antoinette, and every day I look at Homecoming I’m reminded of where I want to go with my paintings. I am also much more aware that the more patient I am with myself and my oils, the better the results.

Erikie can’t you see it yet?! I thought for sure you would be the one telling everyone what it is!
I’ll continue to post updates on this one as I progress with it. :)
Taba yes you see a birdie! Originally Thor & Oz were sketched onto this canvas (18×18) until my clients upgraded to 24×24, so I gessoed over the birds and sketched my new one over the top. They’re still peeking through there though!
i thought i was just going nuts.:razz:
[...] some major changes, but I’m still trying to pinpoint what those are. I also need to get my floral piece [...]
