This work in progress is to help illustrate moving from non-specific to more specifics and details. I don't paint details until near the end. The next specifics will be the roses, and then the leaves and finally the doily.

Cindy, I really enjoy the insight into your process, and this is looking to be another beautiful piece! Are you working from a reference photo or from life?
Thanks Holly! I set the still life up in the studio, but as you can probably guess the roses died in about a day and a half. So I am painting the pitcher from life and the roses from the reference photo...sort of!
