Barrel art!

It's time for me to again paint a barrel for the Paris ArtWalk later this year. I decided to paint one image instead of two. Two seems right since you can only see one side at a time, but I want to put a stronger emphasis on just one image this year. I have had the barrels in the papers and advertisements before and I'm always a little bugged that one one image is shown, and sometimes it's not the one I'd have chose. I'm using an image that Robin posed for. I've been meaning to use her for a painting, she's a great model. Her is the drawing I've started, but I have adjusted her arm and chin since this picture was taken. Hopefully I'll get a lot this weekend.
