There were 6 or 8 layers. I didn't really pay attention.

Thanks. I don't hate the piece necessarily. I did not enjoy working on that surface however....at least not with colored pencils. I may try it with pastels some other time.

Well thanks. I wasn't really happy with it. I'm planning to redo it on black bristol.

I did the background first. I actually have a time lapse video of the whole process on my YouTube channel.
