Bleeding Hearts - Work In Progress

At this moment, I've completed the outline of the flower and have finished the droplet portion of the flower. The droplet has a yellow vein. If flipped upside down and the petals pulled apart, the shape of the droplet yields a shape called 'lady-in-a-bath'.

Here is the green glaze - about 12 layers of green built up on the canvas. Next, the Bleeding Hearts.

Bleeding Hearts - Work In Progress

While working on the Harriet Tubman piece, I have probably 6 other art projects, not including commissions, that I'm currently working on. About six years ago, I was commissioned to do a painting of some Bleeding Hearts and it was one of my favorite paintings. I rarely ever revisit a piece but I wanted to redo it using the Maxfield Parrish glazing technique. So while I'm waiting on layers of the Harriet Tubman piece to dry, I'll post some in progress pics of some work I'm doing at the moment. This is the background layer Payne's Grey and Titanium White. This will take about 2 days to dry.
