As the song goes:

All through the night I'll be watching over you
And all through the night I'll be standing over you
And through bad dreams I'll be right there baby
telling you everything's going to be alright
When you cry I'll be there baby
telling you were never nothing less than beautiful
So don't you worry
I'm your angel standing by

Another Nail in My Heart 8"x20"

"Another Nail in My Heart" oil on panel 8"x20"
Galkyd medium mixed with burnt umber paint applied with a rag.
Drawing done with burnt umber paint and a sable brush. I wiped out the lights with a rag and some paint thinner.
Galkyd and thin washy layer of main colors and values. Then I let it tack up or dry just a bit. Galkyd medium speeds the drying and makes a nice stable underpainting.
Thicker layers of paint and then working out subtle stuff with some sable brushes.
The finished painting.
