I have a few photos of my current painting in progress. With the size and background on this, it is one of my more involved pieces. As with all of my paintings, I start off with a basic sketch onto the canvas.

Then I add a rough first layer of paint just to work everything in and then add numerous subsequent layers, building color and value as I go.

The fine detail work is the final step.

I will post the finished painting soon (hopefully). In the meantime, view the series here: http://amyguidry.com/wild_west.html and here: http://amyguidry.com/wolfpack.html.
