Hi all

I'm working - very slowly- on a painting for the nursery of my friend's baby who is due to be born next month. It's a canvas, 40 cm by 100 cm, and I'm working in acrylic and emulsion. It's a scene of seven teddy bears relaxing in the nursery in front of a sunny window.

I'm going completely against accepted practice and painting the foreground figures before the background, but I think it'll work well for me in this case. The final painting will appear in full when it's done, but for now I'm posting the various stages of its development in my scraps section. Comments welcome.

Thanks

Mark
