1. Finished – 4/21 Finished!  Time to complete was 9 days, probably around 30 hours.  After coating the piece with fixative, and letting it dry, I did some color correction throughout, and then final detail work.  I always try to avoid using black until the very end; it’s my [...]
2. Work in Progress Update – 4/20 Just about done!  Tomorrow I’ll hit it with a coat of fixative, then do a few tweaks and further color correction. var conf_1208 = { APIKey: '2_oNwq1tXm8NsB45zJVQyiUvm0ue-Fw1R_C0zJ9lUF2eb-w8XLF4_9gqwtLRcj9mwr', lang : '', enabledProviders: '' }; var image1208 = {src:'http://www.shawnfalchetti.com/wordpress/wp-includes/images/blank.gif',href:'http://www.shawnfalchetti.com/wordpress/2010/07/01/cpsa-silent-auction-preview/',type:'image'}; var ua_1208 = new gigya.services.socialize.UserAction(); ua_1208.setUserMessage(''); ua_1208.setLinkBack('http://www.shawnfalchetti.com/wordpress/2010/07/01/cpsa-silent-auction-preview/'); ua_1208.setTitle('CPSA [...]
3. Work in Progress Update – 4/19 Picking up some steam, now.  There’s a point in every drawing where the hardest parts are done, and you get to play with colors and details.  Feels like I’ve reached it with this update.  Started to refine the lace, although there’s still a lot of [...]
4. Work in Progress Update – 4/18 A couple of hours Friday and Sunday working on color balancing, especially the skin tones, and further refining the face and hair.  Haven’t done much yet with the lace – but that will be last so I don’t have to rework it several times for [...]
5. Work in Progress – Update 4/16 Still figuring out what I’m doing with Neocolors.  I decided to do a second wash for a few parts, and discovered (unfortunately) that the first wash will come off when rewet.  I completely erased the left arm, as well as some of the darks in [...]
6. Work in Progress – Update 4/13 On Tuesday night I worked on blocking in the first Prismacolor layers.  Always a challenge to get anything done on Tuesdays when Lost is on!  It’s starting to take shape.  Should get a few more hours in on Wednesday. var conf_1208 = { APIKey: '2_oNwq1tXm8NsB45zJVQyiUvm0ue-Fw1R_C0zJ9lUF2eb-w8XLF4_9gqwtLRcj9mwr', [...]

Two years ago I also participated, and created a work using one of the alternate poses from the larger piece that was accepted that year. In that case the larger piece was Cascade, and [...]
