starting canvas 14 / by Philip Tarlow

canvas 14 as it looked at the end of my painting day

2:38 PM: about to stop for the day so we can take our stupa walk in half an hour. I did quite a bit of work on this new one, but it’s not there yet, so i’ll pick up again in the morning.

11:42 AM: I feel good about canvas 13, so I have declared it completed & started on #14. so far, it’s a colored pencil drawing on the usual 15x17.5” portrait linen tacked to my east wall. i’m about to resume, following this brief break, and will post updates as they become available.

it’s a windy day, but not cold, and we’re scheduled to walk at 3:15 this afternoon. sporadic snow may begin around sunset and continue into the night.
