To the Foreground - Finally!


I finally proceeded to working on the foreground.  It was nice to add a touch of a brighter color with the yellow dandelion blossoms.  The rock was sort of interesting to paint, but I'm not sure I like it because the colors don't appear anywhere else in the painting.

The giant butt of the forward groundhog youth still bothers me even though it is now cut off by the grass.  The black and white "stripe" effect you see outlining it is because each hair is striped, with brown at the base, black in the middle, and white on the tips.  But even though it may be "correct," it still has to look good.  This is definitely something that I need to keep working on.
