I'll do it tomorrow...

This is the 2nd work for the series that I'm working on (which I don't have a name yet). The first one was [Just Five More Minutes](https://peakd.com/hive-156509/@hiddenblade/just-five-more-minutes).
This was the study that I did for this. I really love the crimson and magentas but this was looser than the other studies of the same subject. When I had to paint it on canvas, I had to decide what colors to use on some parts without it looking confusing.
I started putting the initial colors that I have in mind. I like working in a lot of layers since I hate having a thin layer of paint between the gesso and the final output lol.
I also put those color drippy early on so some of them can be seen underneath different colors. :D
I slowly added magenta, quinacridone crimson, and quinacridone magenta for the spotlight of this work, le pants. I love how you can layer these magentas because they're transparent.
After a lot of layers on that blanket on the right side, I think I kinda settled on that color and how light it's going to be. I don't want it to look too dark that it blends on the pants so I had to make it light like that.
I like the flesh tones of this painting which is also quite symbolic but I don't wanna explain it for now. XD
There's more contrast to it now and more layers of the dripz.

Making decisions is easier now for me just because I am consistent with painting. It's like the flow is good and everything becomes easier. In my previous painting, it took me quite a long time to decide on minuscule things even though I can just cover them up with another layer of paint if I didn't like it.
