Hey Where Did You Go, Motivation?


The other day I opened another blank canvas I had purchased. It's 30" x 40". I had this idea I wanted to paint, so I sorta forced myself. I began to mix A LOT of paint, and threw it onto the canvas. As soon as I began to cover it I got bored and was over it. I didn't even finish covering the whole thing. I just put it away. Forcing myself to paint has never really produced my best work, so I don't know what I was thinking. I think it's because of lack of inspiration. At least partly.

Look Familiar? -------------------------------------------------->


I started a new painting. It's a little big. I don't know yet if I'm going to go with acrylic or oil paint. I haven't dusted off my oil paints in a while, but I'm scared of what it might do to my brushes. The canvas is 30" x 40". It cost me a few pennies so I really want to take my time with this one. I'll try to update as I go...we'll see.

Space delights...or something like that.



I'm starting a new painting. It's for a friend. If I tell you I'll paint you a painting, it will probably take me forever to do it, but I'll always remember. She liked some other paintings I did for some friends, so she wanted something similar. I asked her what she liked, and she said cupcakes and space....so how could I say no? These are some REALLY rough sketches...but you kinda get the idea.
