Prickly Pear, day one

I am using 300 pound Arches, cold press paper for the first time on this project.  I have to say I love it.  It is taking some getting used to, it soaks up so much pigment that I am having to adjust how deep I apply the colors.  I am anxious to see how it looks after it has had the night to dry.  

So.. here is today's progress: 





 Using Rose Madder, Pthalo Blue and Cadmium Yellow Medium for my palette




Building up to put in the pears, may have a problem on the right side, but I can worry about that tomorrow, right?
