 Not quite done yet but the big issues are resolved! I will be adding more printing on the wrapper and more highlights. Painting the edges since it won't be framed. Oil on boat canvas, 12'x24'

The "model"

I began by blocking in my basic colors

Next, I started adding basic details and brightened up the background color

Adding more details and begin shading and working background more

Inspired by Music

I began music lessons at age 7 and continued to age 14. This conclusion seems to co-inside with my discovery of "boys"! I did however continue my love for music and sang in the All City Choir through out high school. College years were consumed by my art but a music course here and there kept me involved. Fast forward, and I do mean "fast", to present day and the accordian I once loved and guitar are long gone. I do continue to sing, however I'm not going to gloat over that!!!!!
  So, I decided to create some music with silver and this is what I've come up with. I would love to know what you think if you have a minute to go to the bottom of this post and "comment". Thank you.
