studio play, 25x25” oil on portrait linen
11:46 AM: studio play has a very delicate balance, so i took it slow and easy this morning, and listened to my body when it chose to stop. it helped tremendously that the previous painting, which was whited over yesterday, shows through just enough to play a role in what i did today.
so far, i feel it’s a breakthrough painting. i’m leaving it as is. we have guests from paris arriving tomorrow fro a short visit, so, depending on when they arrive, i may or may not be able to continue tomorrow.
