Castle Painting

And here we have the 7 frame picture progression of my latest painting. I had a really large space on my wall, and I knew I wanted to be painting stuff for my book--so I bought a giant canvas to fill the spot and then I had to decide what to paint on it. I've been trying out oil paints, so that's what this is! Was it ambitious for only my third oil painting ever? Yes, absolutely. I have learned my lesson though--from now on I am going to paint only very small paintings. This was really hard.
So for several weeks, I have been pondering and working on this puppy. With a little help from LDS general conference, now it is done!! It's amazing what you can do with 8 hours of guaranteed uninterrupted painting time as you listen to the Lord's anointed. 

Here is the finished product

And here is a fun photo progression of how it came about!
