New location

So here in New England we apparently now have a 'rainy season', go figure.  for the last week it has rained once a day, sometimes very hard.  The forecast calls for rain for another week at least.  Today we have a flood warning.  Soooo painting outside, even under a tent is not the greatest plan.   Here is plan B.  The porch.  A little cramped, but with the help of a fan a little dryer.  Did I mention the humidity?  70%!!!  This IS New England right?  Enough complaining, it is still more fun to paint on a rainy day than not to paint on a sunny one!  :)  

What you are looking at is the under-painting, if your not familure with the term look up the postings for November 2008 where I show the steps from composing to finished painting.  The colors will change, for the most part my underpainting are the deepest tones or the shadows of the true colors.  This will be most evident in the base that will be lightly colored sand when it is done.  I'll update the progress - later.
