I only had three hours at the NGA today, so I didn't get too much done. Adjusted the placement of the vertical dark bar on the right (moved it to the right about an inch.) Roughed in the faces and a few boats just behind the man's shoulder. I still didn't get all the white canvas covered. This painting is so complex, it's going to take me quite a while, I want to be patient. I took a few detail pictures so you can see how Whistler applied the paint in a very abstract manner.
This is in the upper right corner
This is in the upper left corner - look at all the little people in the rigging (I can't see them from where I stand to copy) and Whistler's signature logo in the corner.
