Notes from the canvas

- **Ground:** warm grey. - **First marks (340–540):** slate blue-grey ovals left (where the near leg will stand), pale white and light-blue ovals at the top, then **pale pink** (~460–500) and **peach** at the right (~500–540). - **Time-lapse (560–840):** sky blues and pinks everywhere, **olive** ovals across the bottom (~590–650, the grass); by ~720 the near leg emerges as a grey diagonal and by ~800 the far leg as a pink stroke, without any outline; at 840 the arch, skyline, path and park are all there. - **Refine (985–1385):** the near leg's steel breaks into **blue facets on the shadow side and a pale-gold highlight**; the far leg reads **pink** in sunset light; skyline and path sharpen. - **Touches:** small sky blues, pinks, olives. A pale sky-blue touch lands in the sky **just beside the pink far leg** at frame 1403 (uv 0.698, 0.792; x 0.70, y 0.21 from top).
