Enlargement
The first thing I do is draw out the basic structure of the painting. At this stage I already know what this painting is going to look like when finished (getting it there is another matter). Partly this is because it is part of a series of paintings which are all developing one from another. This means that most of the basic language of the painting remains the same from one painting to the next. Its a bit like learning a new language, each painting re-enforces the words you already know and then I try to add one or two more to develop it and my understanding of it.
