“Wild Quietness”, 20cm x 20cm, Acrylic
This morning/afternoon session was just a bomb…I had my first “wiper” painting. I just covered it over with a grey paint, deleted the images off my camera, said a few choice words and left my studio. While making supper I opened a cupboard and noticed a package of Alaskan honey in sealed plastic straws…well that lead to me searching for another Alaskan product that I know we had around because I not much of a tea drinker.
Tonight the painting just came together and flowed…which is very nice given the disaster of this morning.
Hey notice that it is only midnight when I am posting…not 1:30 am. I will be glad to get to bed at a fairly early hour compared to what I have done this past week.
See you tomorrow.
Great feeling when you struggled with something, then take a break and start all over again later and it just flows… Great boost for your confidence, that is suffering from the “failure” earlier on. The result was great, I woke up this morning and saw your painting and thought “would be nice with a cup of tea for breakfast” , could almost feel the smell of strawberries. 🙂

Yes. I have spent many hours unsewing when I quilted, ripping up watercolour paintings to restart again, and now I add painting over to my list of failure skills! 😉
