Process….Been a while since updating, going to get better about that.  Currently developing a body of work exploring mythology, artifact and allegory… Hercules & Nessus 18’ x 24’ Watercolor Mid-tones & figure study complete.  I will now be developing the blacks & shadows along with darkening the background…Color will become more of an ‘accent’ right now I think its too cheery for the subject matter.
