If a painting is complicated I often do an acrylic underpainting. It is difficult keeping that same loose feel in the final product. Above is proof that mucking in can be just that. I have learned important lessons with this painting. People give life to the work. Thanks Tyler. People are difficult to paint. A bar scene at sunset along the beachroad. Oil on canvas 20"X16".

I do like the looseness in this painting at this stage. I agree that it is very hard to keep it that way. What's YOUR plan. I gave up. Tight Tight Tight-- for now anyway.
This painting is a narrative painting, I wonder if it will keep it's mystery once you "muck" at it (your term, not mine).
this feels fresh... new... theres life here... i like the people outside
This has developed very nicely. Very fresh and spontaneous. Good job, man.
Working oil over acrylic is a great way for you to work, giving the advantages of both.
You actually OWN some oil paint!!!!!!
And how nice they look, too. Please continue....
yeah i guess now that im looking back that you might have dropped the power line thing
