Term finished but painting isn't

I missed my last art class for the term in favour of catching up with my brother who was on a flyby visit home from Australia. This means little Seth didn't get finished not that I think I would have finished in one night.
My task now is to get myself sorted to paint outside of art class. I just need to put the beautiful music on, get the paints out and go for it.

The wee fella emerges

Another night of painting and more of Seth emerges. I have applied the paint thin and used too much medium (so Mary tells me) so this is going to be an 'under painting' meaning that once I lose all the orange bits, I start again with the serious and final layer. Still not feeling confident but can see that I just need to keep plugging away at it.
Did I mention that I am rediscovering that wonderful place called the zone - in a room of people creating with music playing and before I know it, an hour has gone by! The other night I had a 'flying' dream (where I can actually fly in the sky - so real and exhilarating). Haven't had them since my happy days at Polytech!
