Another couple of days working on this and I am beginning to address the focal point.  This will undoubtedly be re-painted as I progress.  First though, I need to finish the foreground - remembering to loosen up to keep the focus blurred.   In a few days,  I will return to the whole painting and make some changes I am already thinking may need to be made.  I usually re-paint many areas of a painting as I progress and sometimes even the complete painting is changed in major ways.  Keep watching.
