Pearl is the wooden codfish cutout that I am decorating for the Codfish Auction, a fundraiser for Marblehead Festival of Art. I am going to decorate my codfish with (painted) strings of pearls. Yesterday I drew a rough scaffolding on my fish. Today I added the pearls. I used pencil over gesso, a horrible combination because the graphite smears. So I cleaned it up with a little more gesso. I will need to make corrections, but I am happy with the pattern. I am still deciding on the color scheme, considering perwinkle blue with irridescent white pearls (maybe a touch of pink) and gold outline. To be continued. . . .
