I went to a Frank Covino workshop last week and got my painting finished to this point. This is the finished verdaccio (spelling?), which means it is painted in green gray colors with all of the values. I first drew it on the board in charcoal, then I painted the verdaccio and then I will add color. So.. it is painted at least three times before it is done. It is a masters technique that the old masters did. This is a copy of a Bougereau called "The mischievous one".
