2021 creek oil 1 on easel with watercolor/gouache adjacent
11:09 AM: i have just under 3 hours to do more work on 2021 creek oil 1 befoe heading back to the house to participate in a zoom with tsudents participating in the test rollout of our actionlab360 learning platform.
to the left of the painting on my easel, you see a watercolor/collage turned on it’s side, sitting on an adjacent easel. it caught my eye just now because it has some very cool elements, and i thought “why not incorporate some of those solutions into this painting? but i have to watch out it’s not just coming from my head.
ok, i’m going to get started & i’ll update you in a few hours.
