Starting on a new painting

MoonDream
All my preliminary sketches for this new series of paintings are created on the computer, above is my latest creation which was done yesterday.

Over the sketch I draw squares which enables me to transfer an outline drawing onto the canvas easily.

Here I have carefully completed my drawing onto the canvas and am ready to begin painting. I don't necessarily follow the sketch, but only use it as a starting point. I frequently change colors as well as the design.

I intend to do another painting and show these two as one unit. The size will be 96" x 48". I am trying to come up with a title, perhaps "MoonDream/SunDream' or "Night Woman/ Day Woman".
