Illustration of Ruby june imprisoned

Here is the illustrated page 13, a cleaned up version of the thumbnail that I will re-work in charcoal on the canvas.  This is the last painting for my show.  From here out I am thinking I will work on all the pieces at the same time.  I will do all the cleaned up illustrations, then all the charcoal too the canvas then all the painting.  If it weren’t for the art show and wanting to get some pieces out there in front of people, this is how I would have worked from the start.
