Yesterday I worked on the house again, and it was a classic, pulling of teeth do-not-accomplish-anything kind of painting day. I ended up nitpicking the details and ended up with a painting that looked little different from what I started with, completely losing all momentum, rhythm, and gesture. It was hard because neighbors kept stopping by to say hello, which was nice, but it didn't help the painting process. And I ended up with something that looked more like a precious moments painting or Thomas Kincaid. Some art just shouldn't be photographed. So, no picture of that step. This morning I worked on it again for a couple of hours, this time in the studio so I could concentrate and get a rhythm down. And it worked, and the painting is much looser and something I would show. Here it is, the final and signed version.
