Challenge Week Two

3:40:00 PM


   Week two and I am already breaking a rule or two. Not only is this one is larger, it is also not going to be for sale. I am afraid you all will just have to forgive me for this one, but it has been a very frustrating painting week. I have been working on a new painting all week and keep hitting road blocks so I decided to do a mastercopy study hoping for an enlightenment. This one is based on a painting by a wonderful artist, Scott Christensen, who I will get the pleasure of painting with next year!
