Detail for Larger Painting

This is a preliminary small detail painted in preparation for a larger painting.  The final painting will be about 36" x 60".  The subject "scene" is Adam and Eve facing God after eating the forbidden fruit.   I wanted the figures to be stark and vulnerable.  I think the pose doesn't quite work but I like the colour.  I'm doing another detail and will post it soon.  In the final painting this will only be a small portion of the painting.  The final shows a wide view of Eden with this detail in the lower right.  Hidden in the foliage of the garden on the left will be Christ on the Cross.
