I started this painting with the intent of it being a finished piece; but as I labored over it I discovered that I didn't do a very good job of pre-planning. As I continued to work I decided to use it as a study for a larger piece. Originally this was 18"x24" but I realize it had some dead space in it so I cropped it out. I am in the process of redrawing and hopefully doing a better job of "planning" on the new piece.
12"x24" oil
