What's on the easel... in real time!

Since Italy I find myself in a creative frenzy, sorting through a sea of images and inspiration, both mental and photographic. I thought it might be fun to post about what is on my easel... and do it in real time. So, this fresco is unfinished and untitled but sitting & waiting...much like Penelope in Homer's Odyssey...ah, ok perhaps it is titled! I will call her "Penelope!"
Penelope, wife of Odyseuss (Ulysses in Roman mythology), is known for her patience and faithfulness in keeping her many suitors at bay as she waited for her husbands return from a long absence. Now she will show the same virtues as she awaits completion. The brown paper area to the right indicates where I will lay the 2nd section of plaster. If all goes as planned she will be sitting by a window with a beautiful view of lets see, hmmm...Italy?!?
