Well, after a one year and seven month absence I am painting again and man does it feel good to be back. I have been painting sporadically over the break but I think taking some time off has helped a lot. Lots and lots of changes too, but everything is really good.
So, with the new one… this is a copy of No. 78 from 2010. I had always liked that image but felt like the first version was lacking a little bit. I tried out my new technique of putting the Burnt Sienna down first and then coming back on top with the color. I think it works a lot better.
I’m still working on the when/why/how of posting but for now I’m just painting and having fun doing it. We’ll see where it goes from here.
P.S. – As you can see, I’ve moved the site over to my own URL. It’s sort of a mess and there are huge chunks that are not done. I’ll be working on it over the coming weeks but excuse the mess for now.
Great to see you back at it! And this is a nice kick-off.
Thanks Tracy!
