Exits



When to say goodbye.



This picture has been on a long journey.

Now it has gone.
There is a time for everything
and it is the end of a struggle.

To be fair...it was coming together 
after several attempts to save it.
But I just couldn’t leave it alone.
It was becoming an obsession.

Finally, after another two hours work 
and wasted oil paint this morning,
I decided enough was enough and
out of the door it went, along
with two more troublemakers.

No regrets.  

I have found the way out of being
‘stuck’ with a painting is having 
 a complete change.

Tomorrow I shall do some quick oil 
studies on paper to loosen up.
Making small pieces can be fun
and is a time to experiment.



To end on a good note...




This little painting is on Arches oil paper.
A quick abstract 6x6 inch sketch 

It reminds me of the colours in my garden.


Painted on the same day
with similar colours were 
three little bookmarks on paper.
They will be cut apart when dry.  




I shall have them all on my stall
at the Gainsborough Artisan Fair 
on 14 December.


Until next time...
Thank you for visiting.
