Picking up Where You Left Off

With almost every painting I work on, I get to a place that I think, "There is no way this painting is going to work." I have learned to embrace this point instead of throwing in the towel (which I have done many, many times). You see, I find that the best things comes from a challenge.

Below is where I am at with the piece.  I've also included a reference photo.  I started the painting on location.  I was standing on E Pratt Street overlooking the Inner Harbor.  I got it sketched and blocked in there. I took the photo for reference back in the studio.
