Work

I'm working on some pleasant smaller paintings over the next few days, and also framing some older work that has become depressed and unhappy on its own in a drawer. A stone wasp in a mountain lake was mostly underpainted today and will be concluded tomorrow. Then, a sun on a chain will be glazed (hopefully tomorrow afternoon) before doing the underpainting to an unusual bit of surreo-abstraction, a geometric interpretation of Eve eating the forbidden fruit (in this case, a perfectly square apple).

Once those are completed I'll start the underpainting to my last big painting of the year, Three Graves.
