9th



Putting It Delicately

The 9th of the 7x7 panels. The turquoise chains going across might be a bit hard to see on a lighter display...

Finally got back to painting again, and have been trying something different—working on several images at the same time. I know lots of artists do it successfully, and it seems like it's a perfect way to work when you have this wait time between layers drying. But I've never been able to navigate that.

So this last few days, I've been working on 3 pieces at the same time, but really, ended up mostly working on this piece and just dabbling with the other 2 pieces while I wait for things to dry. I suppose that's ok.

So this is how this piece started, and I almost decided that I liked it just like that—very simple and minimal. But I'm glad I continued on.

i have trouble working on multiples, too, but i'm guessing you'll get better at it the more you do it! :)
