Dear Subscribers,

 

Greetings!

 

......Continuing from last week

And the finished painting, "Patience"
  (16x12):

 

I like painting "loose" with a generous dose of abstraction. I never had
a problem with over-working a painting. I never had difficulty with
stopping a painting and moving on to something new. So it takes
significant force of will for me to go "tight" across an entire
painting. To restrain myself and settle down. That's what this painting
is about. In the background hangs my painting "Fifty Pounds", an example
of my normal previous tolerance for detail. I rarely go tighter than
that. So for "Patience" my goal was to step it up a little. The focal
center, the espresso pot, represents my typical sense of urgency which I
needed to restrain for the duration of this painting.
