Working
So much of the work we do happens in our heads, before even picking up a paint brush. This painting (above) is one I did about 6 years ago. I liked it but was never truly satisfied. It has lived in my brain since. This summer, when ideas started to brew, I took it downstairs from the loft and looked, drew and thought. Pastel sketches happened (middle photo) and then I knew what to do. It's almost finished now. Some finessing with the temperatures in the larger masses and the small light mass in the distance, but I am close.
I leave for the residency in moments. The super shuttle should be here soon. In Wyoming they are expecting 1-2 feet of snow when I arrive! Wow! Winter here I come! (At home today the temperature will be 70 degrees!)
