Putting Chimp #3 on hold just for a bit. I've been asked to participate in Bear And Bird's (a local gallery) Small Stuff show. So I want to get that out of the way so I can properly concentrate on the chimp painting. Here are the steps so far (excuse the coffee staing on the sketch!  :
very happy with the work I've done on the teeth tonight:

Hey Robert, here's what your new piece makes me think of....
"Most people live on a lonely island,
Lost in the middle of a foggy sea.
Most people long for another island,
One where they know they will like to be.
Bali Ha'i may call you,
Any night, any day,
In your heart, you'll hear it call you:
"Come away...Come away."
In other words, NICE!!!!
Chris

Ok, back to work on Chimp #3....I think he looks like a Lester to me....I had to change the composition a bit to better fit the 16x20 canvas.
