Painting in process

Here are images of my painting, "Spring from the Earth" from start to finish:

here is the prepared canvas with some paper and fabric glued on then
a variety of colors added.









Here I have roughed in a design with chalk.












I've started defining the shapes by painting in the negative space and adding a little color (like the green leaves of the tulips).











I've added more color to the sky and defined the shapes a bit more.











I changed the shape of the daffodil by painting violet over part of it.











I brought in some pattern by stamping a darker yellow into the sky.











This is the finished painting. I got rid of the daffodil, did some more stamping into the flowers and cat, and integrated the stamping by painting into it with the colors around the stamping.
