Sarah Logue Senior Show

All primed! Five 4'x2'&1/2" pieces of wood from Lowe's. 1 layer of 60/40 gesso/water and 3 layers of 100% gesso. Am a little concerned about warping. 

The first underpainting. I create under paintings in acrylic paint to act as a sketch. I really like where this one is going. This painting is inspired by the (creepy) flora and fauna of the Amazon Rainforest.

I'm not sure how I feel about this underpainting. I'm definitely thinking of reworking it. I might use a different pose. This painting is inspired by poisonous plants such as nightshade and hemlock.
I do have a third underpainting, inspired by fishes of the deep sea, such as anglerfish. I like where that one is going. She looks like she is floating in the ocean. I also have pictures of models for my final 2 under paintings. After those I done I will start painting over all 5 in oil.
