Composition - the start of the process:

The original sketch has the background in the wrong place because of my life / easel position. This photos shows the emerging painting without the background structure for the overall composition that I plan.

I wanted to capture the emerging paint strokes, shapes and tones before I go any further.

Objective : to pursue a strong balanced composition with a slightly triangular shape to strengthen the base and add weight. Shall use the sketch from a different life study drawing to effect this hopefully.
