New painting started

Finally started the painting of Jim's guitar! I did a ruddy background with streaks of gold-it will be an expressionist version of his Taylor. He named her Grace, and I hope I do her justice.

Very excited to have picked up a bunch of new canvases last week on big time sale. I finished a 24x36- and may have to hang it in my own dining room. Almost ready to start my first guitar painting. We'll see how it goes............side note: much progress on my novel. It is really shaping up and chapters are finally flying by. It has dropped 10 degrees and it feels like fall-even though it is still 95. Go figure!
