Curiosity Reference Photo For Paintings

I am working with NASA's API for Mars rover curiosity to source reference photos for paintings. This page pulls images from their data base with the use of javascript and php. Some data is missing by date, but there are hundreds of photos. You can click on arrows to go up or down according the a mars day, or sol. This piece is on the first layer and 12x12in.

wip by Daniel Ochoa on 8_LAB

These are my brushes being gently conditioned overnight with linseed oil

8 Lab recently launched a new feature called 'Wip'. Artist's can post works in progress or notes on studio practice. Here is my recent post. I don't wash my brushes, you could say lazy. But I like to substitute lazy for the word 'efficient' in this case, and I explain why.
