I'm working this whole right side of the canvas, bringing this area up to the same level of completion as the rest. The areas I worked on are marked with red arrows. I'm looking for anywhere things still look blurry, or where I haven't properly delineated where one mass ends and another begins.

I'm also homogenizing the color tones in the lighter stone work, to give it the buttery pinkness I see in the photo. Yes, I said buttery pinkness. What else are you going to call it? Actually, it's kind of the same color as white flesh tones. Anyway, the skin of the building is a little more cohesive, and I worked on the details and shadows to bring out the stone work.

I also realized I need to move two of the columns behind the mail box. These show the process of painting over, then repainting the details:

And here's where it stands now:

Amazing work!

Thank you!

wow, such details! As I wasn't familiar with the painting I was surprised to see the full piece as the detail looks like a scene from the 20s and then suddenly it was in a modern cityscape :D

I love the old buildings :)

Oh wow, best piece I've seen here in a while! It's amazing how you paid attention to so many little details. Just beautiful!

Thank you! Glad you enjoy it.
