Antler Bar and Grill

18"x24"
I sketched in the details of the tall buildings, power pole, and balconies. I painted the middle section of the building from dark purple, light purple, dark red, red orange, orange, yellow orange, white orange, and yellow. I painted both the top end sections of the building from: yellow, white orange, yellow orange, orange, red orange, red, dark red, light purple, and dark purple. I painted all the section of the buildings to make it brighter. I painted the windows different shades of blue. I painted the bottom window sills a lighter medium blue. I painted some of the top arches on the top windows dark blue or a lighter medium blue. I painted all the bottom window panes a light blue. The top window is a medium blue. The underside of the arches and the bar in the middle of all windows are dark purplish blue. All the fan like bars in the middle of the arches are light blue. I painted parts of buildings on the left hand corners in shades of blue. I painted its half curved awning a light medium blue. I painted the walls a medium blue and one right side on the awning a dark purplish blue. I painted the building in the bottom center in shades of blue, too. The very top of the arches is a light blue. The arches are a dark bluish purple color. The walls and supports are blue. The main windows are yellow orange at the bottom to yellow at the top. The top windows have yellow upside down Y shaped bars. The windows are dark purple. I painted the sidewalk a very light yellow. The edges are a dark yellow (yellow orange with a bit of purple in them). I started painting the building on the right orange red. I painted the upper part of the building. I painted the power pole and the umbrella green. Green shades are: green for highlights, darker green for medium, and dark green for shadows. I painted the sign medium green on the main part and orange and red orange for the sides and bottom. I painted the table a medium blue and its legs a super dark blue. On the left side of the table is pure orange and on the right side of the table is red orange. I painted super dark blue in most of the windows, a door, and lines on the main arches for shades. I painted the main big fasod red orange and its side orange. I painted in the building on the right longer to fill in the white spots. I painted blue curved lines on the curved awning. I painted the shadows on the sidewalk a dark yellow (yellow orange with a little bit of purple in it). I painted the space between the awning and the building orange. I painted the dark shadow on the sidewalk orange. I painted the sidewalk against the building red orange. I painted three and a half hours on the fifth session. At the bottom of the windows I painted dark blue or yellow to make it look like the windows are open. I painted a dark blue line on all the windows for shadows. I painted the railings on all the balconies dark blue, then painted light blue on the sides where the sun is hitting them. Then I painted the bottom railing (fence) a light blue, then put highlights and shadows. Highlights are very light blue and shadows are a dark blue. Then I painted all the signs. Then I painted four signs white first. Each sign is a different color. The signs are red, green, white, and yellow. I did all the letters on the signs white and some dark blue or green. I painted a dark red line on the bottom edge of the building to show its corners and angles. I painted the sidewalk orange at the bottom, then blended it into the dark greenish orange above it. I painted the table pole green. I painted the two table chairs a light blue. The last thing I did was painted a person white, then painted his shirt orange. His pants are blue. His arms, legs, and face a flesh color. His hair is the dark greenish orange colors.
