Hello again painting fans.


This week I will be continuing with the three turreted Victorian house in Cape May, New Jersey.  I will be using my usual acrylic paints on a conventional 8×8 inch canvas.  The photo that I’m using is seen directly below.

When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo directly below.

Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.

I’ve concentrated on the house itself for the most part.  I began by outlining the windows and various transitions in blue, also adding some to the roof.  Then I painted the siding in orange, bringing it down to the porch level.  At that point, the underpainting was finally done.  I started to paint some white over the orange in the central turret to see how things will look.  It will be interesting to see how things appear when there are a couple of layers on the orange.  But that is a subject best left for next week.

The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I’ll have more progress for you next week.  See you then.
