New Painting Started: St Mary’s Courtyard

I’ve started a new painting. It’s based on some photos that I made of a courtyard at a local Catholic church that has a statue of Saint Mary. I’m planning to enter it in a local exhibit where the painting is due for delivery on the first week of April, so there’s a bit of a deadline. I think I can make it. I decided to do this one using Golden’s Open acrylics, but I started this layer using Turner’s acrylic gouache. The surface is canvas mounted to foamcore, 16 x 20″.
