AAgggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! Sometimes Seeing/Painting Can Really Be a Challenge!

I am learning a tremendous amount in attempting to paint this piece.
What I perceive, preconceived notions and lastly - fantasy.
This is, from left to right: Erica Harrison, Linda Lowery & Tanya Caldwell.
My intention was to turn them into elvish fairies, and I still may - but just getting the basics on canvas with a newer medium (for me) - this time around - has taken ................ fill in the blank.
But, I'm learning - and, learning is usually messy. Most of the time, I like for things to look simple; I don't want people to see that I struggle - this approach to life is simply pride and ego.
So, tah-tah, to pride and ego - at least today!
This is the messiness of learning in Art!!!!!
