2:27 PM: i’m stopping here for the day & will continue in the morning. two females figures have entered the composition, as well as the arm of a boy holding a bottle and some green marks on the top right. this composition will integrate more tomorrow, when i have more uninterrupted time. however, i’d say there’s already a mystery to it that i like, and was intending. combining disparate elements to create a new reality is where my head is at right now. that new reality is emerging, but not yet fully formed.

12:40 PM: we have 2 friends coming over at 3, so i’m going to stop for the dayin about 1 1/2 hours. i’ve been working more on 2021 creek oil 1 this morning, taking a break to chat with my grandson in athens and unsuccessfully trying to get an appointment for a covid vaccination.

8:47 AM: i should be back in my studio at about 10 am this morning, when i’ll continue work on 2021 creek oil 1. as always, i’m excited by the feeling of not knowing where it’s going to go, which direction it will take, which is largely a function of allowing the painting to determine it’s course.
BELOW are a couple of photos shot on our way back from yesterday’s stupa trail walk.
