Can't stop working



Tonight I'm making adjustments to work I'm submitting to a show.
I've shown the work before, but some of the pieces are mine, and
others are in my care, so I can keep working on them. Should I/
I think you can work on a piece until your brain feels finished with
it, and your heart agrees. There's that final finished Ahhh. Then
there's no point working on it. But I frequently feel that I could
and should do more, even when I've exhibited something more
than once.

Here's is a painting of my son's girlfriend, Megan, that I showed you
last night. I've done quite a bit of work on her mouth today, and
then messed around with other parts of the painting, and I may go back to the original feel on some areas.

The painting is very big -- 4ft. wide x
3ft. tall. The background of flaming
sunset was done with a palette knife.
Megan loves the outdoors so it
seemed appropriate. And fun.

Have a make-up-your-mind-to-be-happy day.
