busy

I am in the process of moving, again. This weekend I will be moving back to Maryland to escape the pay of rent and to sit back and think clearly about where exactly I am heading I guess. I have been drawing and sketching quite a bit though, but painting has been hard since a lot of my things are packed away and hard to get to. I did manage to complete one painting today though since I had all morning to do so and felt as if I haven't been doing so much lately. The painting is a remake of a really old drawing I did a few years ago, I'll post the original drawing, even though it is very sloppy and unimpressive. I changed it all around quite a bit though from start to finish. Anyways, here is the original, a progress picture and a complete.
The new sketch was changed quite a bit from the original
Here is a picture of the progress, with the background colors laid out and the base colors also.

I am very excited about the other sketches that I have been working on and plan on spending a lot of time on them. They will most likely be watercolor paintings, when I get around to painting.
Since I am in the process of moving, it may take longer than I would like to complete but I'll post them once completed.
