3:09 PM: I got rid of most of that bright yellow in the upper center, as well as that black above it, which was definitely too intense & made a few other changes.

2:29 PM: this is a revision of a piece I did back in February and had sitting in the house. it was kind of pale, and definitely needed more. so instead of starting a ne horizontal, which was mikela’s commission, I decided to work on this one first, in part as a warm up, since I haven’t painted in 2-3 days due to the framing I was doing.

i’m not sure about that yellow in the upper center, so i’m going to sit with it for a bit & see what I want to do.

BELOW: the before and after. maybe I should have left it alone? let me sit with it a while.
