Hello again painting fans.
This week I will be continuing with the painting of the Cape May transitional-style house . I’m using the photo seen directly below.
I will be using my usual acrylics on a 12 x 12 inch gallery-style (thick) canvas.
When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo directly below.
Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.
There are many changes this week. The major ones are in the foreground. First of all, the steps are now done. Note that only the upward facing portions of the handrails appear highlighted. (white) The remainder of the trim is shadowed in blue. The shingled right side of the steps is highighted like other rightward-facing portions of the structure. Below the steps the lawn has been painted with a shadowed portion. I will still make some minor changes before I am done. The decorative shrubs appear both highlighted and shadowed. Below that the sidewalk and street have been started. I need to do more work here but you can get an idea where things are going.
The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.
That’s about it for now. Next week I’ll have more progress to show you. See you then. As always, feel free to add photos of your own work in the comments section below.

Paint me a picture of your thoughts.
Boran2,
Looking very nice.
Here`s a question.
How do you take a picture of your canvases week to week.
Do you leave your camera positioned on a tripod, facing your easel, or do you just take a new shot approximating the last week`s one?
Thanks Knucklehead. I usually just stand it in the same place on my kitchen counter. The light is best there.
Here`s the “Stand Alone” house.
That’s very impressive! It really takes on a whole new character. Thanks for taking the time to do it.
Lets Find a new way of success and its most appropriate time to break your old habits and admit that using tables for layout is outmoded and lazy. It’s time to move on to CSS layouts, I have admitted this fact and going to focus on it after my IT related exams such as EX0-101 and the EX0-103 at the last but not least EX0-105. Lets go jump into the stream of wisdom like my F50-521.
