Portents of Desire

A slower day, tired and recovering from the days of painting. I came up with a few painting ideas in the evening, but I have lots to work on already. I also typed up some changes to my painting procedures, and modified a few of my tools, including my lamp for painting, and plastic sliders for my painting sticks.

Of today's ideas, I started on this one. It has a touching quality and was originally called Culmination of Moonset, then Culmination of Many Moonsets, then, as I drew it out, Portents of Desire.

I keep thinking of Ireland, Jack Butler Yeats, and today, Jonathan Swift and Pope.
