I have survived another extremely busy week, just... Work always builds up before half-term. During last weekend, I found the time to paint and also celebrated another family birthday.
This week's course lesson is about analysing what you think is working in your painting and what isn't and I have been spiraling in and out, having lots of coffee breaks, so I can view the work in a fresh sense. I feel I am going through another 'awkward' stage. Oh! that teenager self, but I am going to keep rotating my canvas and find what it's trying to tell me, be less critical of myself and remember to breathe!
Here is canvas 1:
Here is canvas 2:
Canvas three's journey is naturally progressing and growing into a finished piece. I just need to add some finishing touches, maybe one last layer, and then I will be able to share that with you.
One final piece of news is that I have started a fourth canvas, which I hope will be a pure abstract one, with an ethereal appearance. We will have to wait and see how it progresses. This will be a whole new challenge for me.
Introducing canvas 4:
How is your week going? I am hoping for a quieter weekend after school ends today and to post again soon. We are heading towards the end of Flora's course. I can't believe it!

It's interesting that all you canvases, while different, feel like part of a cohesive collection and have ultimately a similar color palette.

Oh my, these are coming on apace ... I especially like the first one for the sense of a multiplicity of layers and something emerging but it's not sure what it is yet. And admiring your energy as you find time for all of this as well as work!
I just love canvas two and agree that the three canvases have the same colour palette which is so levelly.
