I started with the darker reds on the bottom, working my up through the lighter reds, orange and yellow at the top:
Then I started to fill in these shapes, again beginning with the darker reds at the bottom, gradually moving through lighter reds and oranges toward the top:
This is still very much the background, and nothing more. Foreground to come soon!
