First New York Painting

NYAA is doing some remodeling, which means I'm starting to work from home. Not a bad thing, I'm used to it. The first image is a line drawing of the composition - any circles will actually be stars. Using stars to break up some of the main shapes and will be add depth. Stars are great, and are something worthy of adding to my first painting in New York.

I attempted to do a full value study with charcoal. It didn't turn out well, but was useful. I love charcoal.

It will be interesting to see if this painting goes "as planned" or gets completely changed throughout the process like the last couple. Tomorrow I'm setting up my painting studio in my bedroom and getting the canvas ready. Hopefully I'll have time to start drawing, I'm swinging for the fences on this one.
