I am going to post these paintings in parts, to share the journey from blank canvas to creation.
Shown here is the beginning. I have painted the background my favorite color, a deep, blue-violet. I believe it is my favorite because of its moodiness. Hopefully your browser shows it correctly, or the same as mine - a cross between a dark purple / violet and a cobalt blue.
I wanted to start this painting dark for the atmosphere and to bring me into a certain frame of mind. This color does it for me. Even if none of this color shows in the finished painting, I will know it is there, and now you will, too!
