Flower Painting: Stage 1

Sketching the image. I thought that I would do each painting at the same time so that there would be some continuity. I think that I can accomplish this doing them individually.

House Portrait: Corrections

Just been informed that the house is beige not blUE! Knew I should have taken notes...

Computer monitors have a blue over cast to them that I am aware of, but have forgotten...so lets see if I can correct this as simply as possible with a glaze "beige" overcoat! ;-/
