Colours

Busy over the past two days. Yesterday I painted a picture of a plant reaching for a black moon but I didn't like the colours. In fact I couldn't bear to think of the painting. In the evening I went to a small reception at Jobling Gowler in Macclesfield where The Silkworm is on display. The firm will mount an exhibition of other artworks by the prize winners early next year so I'll have the chance to show some other paintings. The day's painting still bothered me though. This morning I erased it.

Today I painted a small study for The Apocalypse of Finance but made little progress. I'm frustrated at my lack of progress in art this year, but that is because I am experimenting more than ever and such things take time.

Tick tick tick!
