After working on this painting for about two and a half months, I'm finally in the very last stages! Below are my final "in progress" photos, as I finished up this three-piece acrylic painting on canvas.
And now the triptych is finished! Check back soon for another blog post, featuring pictures of the finished set of three canvases!

| Adding in layers of dark green, dark blue-green, and lighter brownish-green for the silhouetted bushes along the bottom. |
 |
| Close up of some of the ground-colored paint (while it was still wet and particularly shiny). |
 |
| Dark bushes in silhouette. Once the first layer is dry, I'll add a bit more dimension. |
 |
| Adding in glowing street lamps along the bottom, and some foliage details. |
 |
| I used looser brushstrokes for the bushes, just as I did the background sky. |
 |
| The looser brushstrokes give the bushes a more abstract look than the crisp lines of the architecture. |
 |
| I added some glowing red lights to the tops of some of the skyscrapers, to match the street lamps along the bottom. |
 |
| More glowing red/white lights. |
