The Wall

 Before I get to the frame on the war painting, I needed to clean up the wall. That allows me to create crisp lines on the frame without having to worry about splashing the wall paint on them. I also brushed in the two shadows underneath the painting while I still had the correct pigments on the palette.

But the right side of that parquet floor still looks uneven.
