Waterways 19" x 25" Pastel on paper (this one IS finished)This coming weekend is one of four out of the year when our building and our studio are open to the public. (February 6th & 7th, 6-11 pm both nights).
It's always good for us to have these deadlines, a way to wrap up whatever we're working on, have some new pieces framed, clean and organize. Yesterday I sent out my mass email letting friends and people who follow my work know that they can drop in to say hello, have a glass of wine, meet other art followers.
For the last 3 shows, I've been trying hard to finish 3 larger oil paintings that are inches away from being complete. They are favorites of mine, and several people have asked when they'd be done. I have worked on all 3 of them since the last show, yet here I am again and they are not quite resolved to my liking. Maybe I'm just not ready to let them go.
