2/28/22 oil/collage.following this morning’s fine tuning
10:51 AM: this morning i used my fresh morning energy to fine tune 2/28/22 oil/collage. i placed more highlights in the outfit of the dancer on the left, as well as on the body of the paddler & his outfit. gazing at it now from about 20-25 feet, it’s made a significant difference, so that the whole composition now pops. and finally, i collaged a blue piece of map onto the bottom-center of the composition, beneath the dancer’s lifted leg, which eliminated a lot of unnessary clutter and connected with the other collaged map to his left. i’m seeing now that the central yellow paddle is key to the entire composition, as is what’s left of the sky i briefly introduced yesterday morning. looks resolved to me!
