Close



I love this painting but it was such a challenge to resolve it I am particularly eager to put it away and not look at it for a while. In many ways I find my under-paintings more interesting than my paintings, but they don't feel finished to me. I feel like if I tried to pass them off as finished pieces just because they are interesting it would be like showing up to a formal event in pajamas and saying, but aren't they the loveliest shade of purple?

 

Perhaps I have just become too limited in my color choices, and that is what is so appealing about the under-paintings.
