First day of underpainting 'Punishment Of The Sun'. I found myself thinking like an AI in an uncomfortable way I cannot describe. I felt my intelligence grow. I listened to Heaven And Hell and Albedo 0.39 by Vangelis as I painted; I now like both equally, then Sibelius.
Today, painted sky, tree, hand-tree, caterpillar, desert floor. Tomorrow, mountains, rock pillow, perhaps some of the dried flowers. I fear this won't be enough but I'd prefer to tackle the face and flesh on a separate fresh day to give me plenty of time. Maybe I could paint the hair tomorrow.
