Work in Progress

Working on an acrylic, after too long not working on anything at all - I suppose I feared I wouldn't be able to see properly and so didn't want to take the risk of mucking things up: but I can see well enough to work on this sort of scale (16" by 12").

I can foresee a problem with the large triangular are at bottom right - ie, what to fill it with?  The scene itself is largely composed of nondescript, straggly shrub - perhaps I should just reflect that.  There's nearly always an area in a sketch which looks OK in pencil or charcoal on paper, but gives you a problem when you try to paint from it - well, we'll see.
