The finished painting almost a month later. I started this painting at the Bartlesville Art Association meeting on the 15th of January. I had about an one hour of work in it by the time the session was over. I posted the image of that evening's effort in a previous blog. The image on that blog is a good example of what I refer to as the first stage of a watercolor painting...at least the approach that I take. From there the painting is brought more into focus with adjustments of values as well as a great deal of additional detail.
People are very interested to learn how long it takes to paint an image. It can vary so much, depending on the size of the painting and the amount of detail set forth. I have maybe 8-12 hours in this piece, including the time with the Bartlesville session.
