A Backpiece in progress - Page 3

Fifth and Sixth Sessions - March 2 and April 7, 2002

Shannon colored in the inner frame with purple and green. 2 hours each session.

Seventh Session - June 1, 2002

This was a short session. Just started coloring in the outer frame. 1.5 hours.

Eighth Session - October 12, 2002

Finished shading the whole left side of the outer frame. 2.5 hours.

Ninth Session - November 16, 2002

Shaded in the right side of the outer frame. The photo shows the piece at the end of this session. 2.5 hours.

Tenth Session - December 13, 2002

Getting tattooed on Friday the 13th seems really appropriate. Shannon shaded in the space between the figure and the inner border with a gray pattern. Now the piece has a more finished look. We may return to do more shading in the inner area, but it's not certain just yet. 2.5 hours.

Eleventh Session - April 11, 2003

One more short session today. We added Cathy's new tattoo, and a little bit more on the frame at the top. The part on the back of the neck hurt like hell, but it also sent tingles all the way down to my legs. Yow. 1.5 hours.

Twelfth Session - May 9, 2003

Just a short session of touchups. We are now declaring the piece done. 1.5 hours.
