| Rushing Stream oil 36 x 18 |
It is taking me longer to finish paintings these days which may sound like a bad thing, but I actually look at it as a small victory. It means I am able to push past where I used to. I have a new set of skills. I used to be afraid of working past a certain point with my work--afraid that I would "ruin" the piece by messing with it some more. Now, I am able to look at what I have done and I can spend another session on the work without muddying it. I can improve on it without losing the original start and the fresh feel. As I gain more experience, there are no longer big leaps, but these small victories which show growth and that is always a good thing!
