Fox Play, work in progress 2.
At this point, I'm kind of playing around with colors and where I want things to be in the painting. With the fox being so orangey, I want a lot of blue in here. I love complementary color schemes. The colors I lay down now, will show through somewhat in the finished work. They might seem strong and to dark now, but they'll be layered over many times with other colors. I like the depth that brings into a painting.
Pastels are fun, you can add many many layers of colors and they seem to melt together in the end.
