Monochrome with Colour Glaze Project/3 11 Feb 2011

Continuation of the monochrome underpainting and coloured glaze overlays project sees some paintings complete and others in various stages of progress. The project is creating much debate and new experiences on the journey towards completion. We welcomed a rejuvenated Michael back and welcomed a new face to the group - David. Here are the project images so far:
