A peek at a painting I am working on.  With studio paintings I typically draw everything out pretty carefully as the drawing is the framework for the painting and determines composition.  This is a street near Multnomah Village --in the photo reference I took the wet road dissolves into light.  I'm really looking forward to getting to work on this one some more, but I have to finish a portrait before I can resume work.
