"The Poker Club" Continued

"The Poker Club" work in progress, oil, 30"h x 40"w, ©Jill Banks 2011-2012
Today, I just relished having the opportunity to PAINT.

I returned to "The Poker Club" painting. Specifically, the right side of it. So, if it seems like two paintings at the moment ... split about down the middle ... there's a reason. The canvas is too large to address all of it at once. And, the right side of the subject of the painting was the most difficult to view while I was painting it live. I peer around the left side of my canvas ... and to look at the poker players on the right and then walk over to the right side to aim my paintbrush was hard work.

Anyway, here it is so far.
