Saint Tiffany

The painting is complete! It may look identical to the last scan, except for the two new candles, but I can assure you the quality is much nicer than before. I decided against any more background trickery, as it looked great after the second coat of crimson. Besides, one errant stroke would have ruined everything!

Now the quest is to knock that Sunday strip out today. Things are looking dim for it, but I'll do my best. It's scary how little of Precocious' future I have scripted at this point. I have next week roughly laid out, and then it's really sketchy. There's a big storyline brewing, but it hasn't taken form yet. The pieces are close to snapping into place, but the brain just isn't providing the funny at the moment. It'll come.
