moving along

some growth and ungrowth..or more like growth in the wrong direction....gah. live and learn.



i got all excited experimenting with the background. my attempt at "letting go"  on Wednesday  was playing around with the pallet knife  in the background. i went a little crazy. the experiment went a wry; the colors were too bright, it had chaotic lines and the focus was no longer on my figure. definitely not what i wanted...but i'm glad i let myself just play around a bit, even though part of me felt like i had wasted valuable time, i still feel like  it was a good lesson of what not to do for these paintings. so i reeled myself in, painted over the mess and am in the process of creating something that works.

Bad idea shots
