More work on Underwater, this last week, and a little on #2

 Happy solstice!

I'm slow updating this week - got covid the day after I painted, when I was supposed to be packing and driving down to my daughter's in L.A.; and so, I didn't (pack up and load up and drive away).

But here's what I worked on Tuesday:

More work on the creature; I'm not sure the photo is doing it justice, but I like how he's coming along; more work on the woman, and I've finally started to break my anxious avoidance on the dog - who, by the way, seems kind of an Airedale type to me. He's the one who said, in my dream, "I think we must be underwater," which became the title for this painting.

Here are a couple of details:

And a little little work on #2:

Recent work on DS #2 and DS #3 - and a title for DS #1

I skipped last week for updating, but I worked on both of these last week. This week I only worked a little bit on #3, and not on #2.

Last week's work on #2:

 

And here's how the whole piece looks, at this point:

More on the horse's face and neck - I like the sensitivity of his face. I like that arcing band of blue and purple above his neck - somehow it feels like it echoes his ears. I also worked a little bit more on both the howling wolf cubs, but am still feeling pretty nervous about working on them.

And on #3, which does have a title - I Think We Must Be Underwater - I did a bit more on the woman last week; this week I just worked some on the creature, but I am finally feeling happier with how that's looking.

 

One other thing: I finally have a title I like for #1.
