and finally for today

this is the very beginning of piece again based on the st anthony story. this is actually going to be more like the piece i originally intended the first time but which i decided against once i saw the canvas. this is on a board and while the other one is now simply called Anthony of Egypt, this one will be the actual temptation represented. it will take time but i have a definite plan. actually this board has a twin which i havent photographed at all yet (and this picture is obviously a partial view) but i'll get to that in the next few days. the pile of paintings is due a sort anyway and i've got a bit of framing to do.
