Back to the Sunflower painting


This was the point that I started at this time. As you can see I was still having trouble resolving the background and had tried several different ideas.


I grabbed my painting knives and relaxed into my old style. There's something about moving tiny bits of color around. When done slowly it's calming. Working faster and a bit wilder it helps you blow off steam. I guess that's why I go back to it time and time again. It's less about what it looks like than how I feel while I'm doing it. I guess in artspeak I'm what they call a "process person".
