After it was pointed out to me that my all the photographs of my paintings looked yellow, I adjusted the white balance in my camera and took the photo below. It is much more representative of the actual painting than any of the other photos.

Light at the end of the tunnel...
I am getting close to being able to call this painting finished. I still have a couple of hours worth of work to do on it, but it has to dry before I can add those finishing touches.

I visited a gallery today that had expressed interest in my paintings. I took 3 of my paintings, my portfolio and a CD with images of about 20 of my paintings. They asked me to bring some of the paintings from the portfolio in, and talked about doing a show with one other artist in the fall. I will post updates periodically as I have new information to report.
Here's the progress today on my latest painting....

Progress as of today...
I changed some of the reflections on the bottle so that it did not look like there was a reflection of a mask, and I corrected the shape of the girls arm on the left (her right arm). I also started on the shiney metal lid of the cannister... which is tedious and time consuming.

New Painting in Progress
Here's the beginning of a new painting. It is 20" x 16" oil on canvas. I purchased the reference photo from Anna, a Russian amateur photographer who lives in Israel.

Oil on linen (CL#13), 20" x 18"
Yet to do are the shadows and detail on the tabletop... and anything else that I find along the way!
