Here is my oil bar painting as it looked when I was finished for the day. I am working from a picture that I took at Long Hill Gardens; my reference photo is posted here on Mar. 20. Yesterday I reworked the placement of the grapes. In the process, I reduced the number of grapes and lost some of the color. Today I put in more grapes (following my revised plan for the composition) and restored some of the deep blues that had faded in the process. I also added some light blue reflections to the grapes, and worked a little bit on the wood beam of the arbor. Now I feel like this is back on track.
