After Some Elbow Grease

Here's the dum-dum further along--
In the left (sorry for such a blurry pic), I've added one more layer of color (since the previous entry) for this preliminary loose sketch.
One layer later, after that last step dried, I just worked through the whole thing with brushes, directly painting the still life. I think one more touchup after this dries will finish off this little exercise.
