4/22/26 crazi goldfish, 7x11.75” oil on linen
2:59 PM: this afternoon i was moved to make a new painting over the scraped and whited over branches with rock painting. it now belongs to the recent series featuring goldfish and has, i believe, a compelling composition, allowing the eye to roam from the female figure at the top, to the grren leaves, to the swimming goldfish and the round table below. i think it has gained from what i learned making all the previous versions.
4:03 PM: the blacks and the blue on the right were too dark, so i went back in and lightened them.
11:09 AM: i was going through some collages and came across this one. it carries really well from a distance and, as i’m looking at it now, is one of the best in this series of collages. i couldn’t find a title, so i named it collage #8. dimensions: 7x11.75”
