starting 4/16/21 watercolor/collage / by Philip Tarlow

2:29 PM: after a snowy start to the day, the skies partially cleared & there’s decent light for working. i spent a few hours preparing new surfaces to paint on over the next week or so, as well as preparing and baking brownies. i purposely burnt them a bit so they’d be nice & crisp, and i added some walnuts too.

i started to paint 4/16/21 watercolor/collage about an hour ago. i love taking it slow, and waiting to learn what i might do next; the expected unexpected you could say.

i like how it started, and i think i may stop here for the day. after all, i don’t have any deadlines other than the ones i choose to impose upon myself, and it’s cool to come into the studio in the morning and be able to continue work on something new that’s poking it’s head about looking for a way home.
