Call me crazy, but as I hear the ticking clock of time slowly edge upon me that feeling of sadness in winter's passing is edging oh so close now- my respite from my job for the past 3 months (going on 4) is coming to an end as I prepare for a new class in April giving me no time to paint. I should consider myself fortunate as most people do not have the ability to take such time off from work to dedicate themselves to painting-and don't get me wrong I make an ok living off of my hourly job but also live very under means so it is a double edged sword of sorts.
My newest work includes an aztec theme which I am ok with, I feel eh about it to be honest as I feel it could have been better. I also did a body part focus which I had a blast painting (no it is not THAT kind of body part either!) I also really messed up a painting big time on Sat-took Sunday to fix it. How did I fix it? I painted completely over it! Heck- canvas is not cheap (especially when you are under a strict income) so to throw it away would be a HUGE no-no! I ended up light years away from what I originally wanted to paint-but the result was really well worth the goof up and also a lot of fun to play with. I find those oops are usually a good experience for me as it gives me ideas on maybe something I thought of a while ago but "just never got around to it."
I will have the new work posted up soon-have to take the pics...ahhhhh it just never ends does it?
