Well, I'm back. It's been a very busy week with the end of school (summer vacation - here we come), registration for my homeschool co-op next fall, a broken down car to repair, my turn to sit at the gallery, a birthday (mine), unexpected doctor appointment...you get it. Also, I've been suffering from tennis elbow symptoms that have been around since before I started the mural, so a little break seemed like a good idea.

I did head out to the garage this evening to add some details to the strawberries - softening the shading around the seeds, adding dark shadows under the leafy tops, etc. Also, I detailed some of the flowers a little more - mainly the centers, adding a little red/orange in.
I wasn't out for too long, though. I'm at the point where I'm going to be moving on to the next panel - the grapes and all of those leaves. It's going to require me to mix up a little more of some paint colors and, once I get going, it's one of those areas that I'll probably obsessively continue until I have them all done. So, tonight was not the night to go there. Maybe tomorrow.
