As you can probably tell, the first layers of oil paint tend to be a bit transparent, so the drawing is still pretty visible under most of it.

So during these first stages, I'm just concentrating on getting down some basic color and value relationships, and filling up the entire canvas with a block-in. Detail isn't really concerning me at this point - that stuff all comes later.

Still MUCH to do. But in the meantime, if you have questions or comments, fire away!

Remarkable likeness of Bautista, even in the early stages!
