And there ya have it. Sadly I didn't keep track of this painting before the first photo, but that is the six month progression of this canvas. It's one of those things where you work on something for long enough that you get to a point and, no matter if it's any good, you become content or at least complacent with the piece. It's taken so much time that you give it the benefit of the doubt that it's done...that's the situation of the second photo. Then, after seeing it for months and months, you realize that, while you were content before, there is work to be done. Sometimes you just have to spend some time away from a piece to find out where to go next. And who knows, the same could happen in another 6 months and the series could be expanding to a completely new concept...Anyways...after six months we've gone from "The Stack" to "The Grid" and finally through the steps to the final "Bless the Rain that Falls the Leaves, Our Weathered Fears."
