Watching the Boats With Dad Projection

In an effort to provide more frequent posts and updates, I plan on blogging each day's work on my current painting.  This work is another landscape based on Montgomery's River Front Park and I was able to capture this image on the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival.  The painting is actually a composite of two photos I took of the same basic composition, I just needed to shift the father and son over a little on the sidewalk to better organize the elements, which is why they're drawn in pencil.  In another month or so when I theoretically finish this painting, I intend on restarting and completing the Tintype Commission portrait I began about two years ago.
