Behind the Scenes at the Painting Factory. | Sky in Session

The metaphor of the “sausage factory” is often used to describe a behind the scenes look at something not often seen, and perhaps for good reason; ie. if we all had to watch sausage being made no one would really want it anymore. Is the same true for oil painting? I’m thinking not, in fact I’m thinking/hoping it will be interesting for non-painters and other painters alike to see the progression in stages of a gesso’d white board into some kind of art.

So here goes, a 24x36inch landscape I started late last month.
