The final one that was painted over the white canvas turned out really well but the demo was just a dud....we all live and learn no matter how old we are.
Love the last painting. It is stunning! Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like you worked out the colour, composition etc in the first painting and then you had a clearer vision for the final beauty. I also think, you were fighting the original underpainting from the get go. So note to self, go ahead and use a failed painting but perhaps paint over with white paint before beginning? Am I close? lol Thank you Gwen.
You are spot on Anna.....the reason I didn't do this was the under painting was oil and I didn't have oil gesso do cover the painting.....hence the battle to get it to work.....and battles never end well....or at least for me.
