This is a quick sketch, the kind I really like to do. Just do it and be done. I realized something this morning. When I go away on vacation and I post ahead, I can post any old thing. But when I am here, I stress about each painting--whether it is good enough to post. It is as though when I am on vacation, I'm not around to take the heat. Very strange, since it is all on the internet. Do any of you other painters encounter these baffling quirks of the mind?
I love the painting. Your simple brushstrokes taking the form into full volume and the passages of beautiful color make it hard to believe you stress about it.
ReplyDeleteI understand completely about the difference in my attitude when I can post ahead. Whats done is done, kind of thing.
I am learning to try and let go of the picky stuff... but I still want to grab a brush and make the changes I see are needed. It is not as much being on the Internet but being in the space where the tools are available to make the change.
Most artists do it I think.
Hi Julie--thanks for the response! Its nice to get a dialog going about these things--I appreciate your feedback.
