I'd like to thank everyone for their patience- I know the blog has been terribly boring without any updates. I was actually struggling to paint and dealing with insecurity- often that preceeds a 'breakthrough'. My new paintings are smoother- I'm taking my time doing thema and pacing myself, as I've hired help to watch the kids when I work. Figuring out priorities and a schedule has been frusterating, but now things seem to have settled and I'm pleased to share my new work.
I thought it would be interesting to share the peices in two stages- nearly finished and half done. You can see the progression and development, and in the future when I post unfinished shots you can then perhaps imagine where I might take it.
