Sargent's Grays - Next Step
23 0f 30
11" x 14"
This now shows about 2 more hours of painting. At this point I have to really look at the grays in the shadows. This is how they look in the photo, but I'm not sure that they work together. I also see that the balcony supports need a it of sizing help. And, this is something that you have to deal with when painting from a photo as opposed to a still life, which is right in front of you, and/or plein air, when what you're painting is right there outside with you. I also see that the balcony supports need a bit of sizing help. I'll keep this right in front of me for a day or two until I decide about the shadows. What do you think?

I have been watching your process with great interest, Pam. This is coming along beautifully!
I have to agree with Claire. I don't know what I think about the shadows. My gut reaction was to think they were perfect. But you've had me studying them a bit and I'm still not sure.
I have a feeling just one or two slightly darker areas would complete the shadow. But not all of it and not a lot.
Thank you all for your thoughts. I'm still looking at this and will post my finished piece soon!
