New work

I have been working even if I haven't been posting (sometimes I forget I am supposed to be posting here, oh well one day I will actually get organized) I have been working on several pieces in my China series. They don't seem to be working as well as I had hoped
Here is the first one

It is getting closer to what I wanted but still not there yet. I'm thinking it might need to be darker.
Here is the 2nd one. I haven't actually done much to this one yet, still trying to decide where to go from here.

I'll keep working & hopefully remember to post more often.
