Stages of paintings; Finished two Current Works in Progress

Update: Okay, for those who asked me about the status of these two painting's of our neighbor's home... I took a break from these two paintings for awhile. They are just about finished. A few finishing touches and they will be done. It always feels good to get a project done. I have other paintings that I am wanting to begin. So, for those who like to watch the progress and stages, sorry about only taking two photos on this one. ;-) I'm just glad they are finished! It was kinda sad thinking about the night of the fire. I am ready to paint something fun!

Mixing Impressionist painting style with hyper-realism to create these Surrealistic Works of the night my neighbor's home caught fire. 

Works in progress, as I painted them --two surrealism paintings. There were many stages on these two, and drying time in between. But, I only took two pictures.

I paint most things that impact me in my life. Both works will be in a series and are of my neighbors' home that burned down. "Sad House" will be made into two surrealism paintings.

This is At the stage of just sketching out the plan on canvas with paint:

These two paintings are at stage two, so they are in the very beginning stages. So, for those that follow my work; I will keep in touch regarding their development. I'm planning on using mixed media acrylic supplies to create texture, I also plan on burning paper to add into the acrylic mediums. Lastly to obtain shine and richness, I will use oil paints and to add even more texture, I'll use thick varnishes at the end. These works are more planned out then most.
