Another Early Stages Painting Work in Progress...



This painting is still very much in the early stages...  I am hoping to get her done for Nibblefest on Monday the 20th, but we'll see.  The theme is "coffee."  Although I've seen some truly lovely still life paintings with a focus on coffee, I couldn't really find inspiration in it for myself to paint.  So, I hemmed and I hawed, and hemmed some more...  And thought of a beautiful fairy girl with skin the color of coffee...

And decided to give it a go.  I'm not sure if I'll finish on time or not, but I will make the attempt...

I'm joining in this week with Paint Party Friday.  To see more participants, please visit:

I hope you get it done in time because what you have drawn so far is a fantastic woman. I can see a definite look in her eyes!
