This is a tricky concept for me. I always looked to art as a refuge and a comfort blanket from the crazy world we live in. My studio was supposed to be a sanctuary from troubled thoughts and the stresses and strains of life. Now in my comfortable retirement I am finding that the biggest struggles and challenges are coming from my painting. All self inflicted of course. Now I need to reset my mindset. The longer I am prepared to struggle with these paintings the better they become. This one has turned out much better than expected, but like I said in the previous post, I’m not sure what I am expecting to find any more. Painting must continue, this one is finished.
