This one was fun. I found images of a new model.
I was asked, “How do you know when it’s done?”
The answer: When I like more of it than I dislike and fixing what I don’t like will mess up what I do like.
Or when my timer goes off.
Or I can’t stand looking at the thing any more.
This one had me feeling a little bored as I painted. I don’t know if it was the pose, 10 days of painting figures, or the long day messing with solar panels.
I’m happy with the outcome though. I’ll go to town and find fresh poses tonight.
Done earlier in the day. Finally decided I should do something more productive than a warm bed, good book, and great coffee today.
Now I can go back to my nest without guilt.
This started out a little rough. Since I didn’t paint yesterday I felt like I forgot how. It past very quickly though and I’m happy with the way it turned out.
I’m not sure if I’ll get my store fixed over the weekend. I’m in the middle of the woods, where I belong. The internet is spotty.
I almost didn’t do this one. I had planned to get up early and do two paintings today. I was still grumpy and the rain and my bed called my name. I think I just needed part of the day to recharge from how busy I’ve been for months as well as, the “incident.”
I finished a really great book titled, A Man Called Ove. I highly recommend it. It is a book of feels though.
I’m about to go back to bed and watch a movie.

This one is still wet, hence the glares.
I was all set to take good photos of all the paintings today, but I found my memory card and card reader. Of course I did. It would not be my life if I didn’t purchase a replacement only to find the original immediately after said purchase.
So the time I would have taken and edited pictures was spent driving 45 minutes each way.
Whatever. It was worth getting $87 back.
Fingers crossed tomorrow is a good day for pictures.

I love this pose. I have the same model in something similar that I’m sure I’ll paint this month.
I was finally able to get a new memory card and card reader for my camera so I’ll hopefully take real images tomorrow and have these officially for sale.

This one was a struggle. If I have time tomorrow I may pay with the color palette.
