2:35 PM: i had a huge appetite to delve back into sweet, which clearly not anywhere near resolved when i stopped working yesterday. a few elements remain, but i painted over the ground color i had created, which was too strong, too aggressive. as i have been saying for months now, a language is developing, emerging form my years of painting plein air, as well as from observing the shapes and marks i tend to repeat when making my abstract collages on paper. what you want, as an artist, is to know what's going on in your kishkes; a yiddish word for gut.
