I’ve been working on this painting, Washington Square, for some time. The underpainting is far enough along to show it. It’s 44″ x 56″. I’m 6’2,” so you can get a sense of the painting’s size.

There are 12 figures and 7 pigeons in the work. There was a 13th but I’m painting it out. (You might just be able to see it to the left of the yellow-clad figure’s head.) I’ve had 6 painting sessions with it and the underpainting still isn’t finished–it has a long way to go.
Yesterday, I had my first painting session with the painting titled The Photographer, which I’ve mentioned before. It’s still too raw to show.
