Tonight is the turning point for the painting. It is close to completion. This one came together rather quickly. I guess it makes up for all the ones that make me sweat. The trees are in. There are just a few areas that need some finessing, primarily in the leaf mass and some touch up in the water.
Its title hasn't come to me yet, but the painting is talking to me, giving me hints as to what its story is.
Inspired by Julie & Julia, I vow today, Sunday, May 22, 2011, to paint every day for 365 days. It doesn't matter if I paint for a half hour or eight hours. It doesn't matter whether or not a gallery wants my work. It does not matter if it is seen by the public or not. The point is, I must paint for my sanity.
