The day began with trumpets then, for a while, slowly languished in the melancholic strings of worry before violins took hold and trumpets once again rang out! Today I underpainted The Infinite Tiredness of Ageing, a picture assuredly destined for eternal greatness. The colours were simple; red ochre, naples yellow deep, black, white. I've made a small change to the picture after taking this photo, which shows that a blog can help improve a painting! I changed some shading on the dripping "fleece" type object on the limping horn. See how it looks a bit disjointed in this image.
Tick tick tick! I've got lots to do in the next five days and painting this in one day has helped everything.
