| "Whole Piece #57" 6" by 6" Oils on Panel |
 |
| First Phase: The gessoed surfaced is toned and a simple layout is worked out with rough line and a bit of value. |
 |
| Second Phase: Darkest darks are roughly laid in and the lights are placed though lightest lights are reserved for later. Attention is placed on these early steps to the angle and character of the brushwork that sets the painting going. |
 |
| Third Phase: Adding subtly in value and brushwork and bringing lights and darks to meet directly. |
 |
| Finished |
