What Was I Thinking?

"What was I thinking" may very well not be a unique title for my posts as I often wonder that at some point in working on a painting.  But, really, what was I thinking when I decided to put Phreddee (the rosarian) on a draped lace curtain?  Well, all I can do is forge ahead, try my hardest, and hope for the best.

My process so far has been to block in the colors of the roses, then block in the brick red around the roses and cat, add the texture for the carpet, glaze the beige over the curtain, then begin to fill in the curtain detail.
