Painting in Stages


Painting in stages is foreign to me. 
When I let the paint dry in between visits, 
I tend to loose my immediate, intuitive reaction to the subject
and I end up changing the whole idea with each visit. 

Example:
Day 1:
My quick block in 
(over an old painting)



 Day 2:
(After fooling around with it on my I Pad)
I lightened the background, outlined some shapes, 
and changed the red flower in front to yellow. 


Then I fixed the vase and cleaned up the shapes.

I like the first one best.
Need to do some more of this. 

 NOTE: 
This approach allows for some 
wonderful texture!
