Another day of progress ... and finally I can see exactly where I'm going with this. Whew.
When I first started painting I could always see where I wanted to go with the picture ... could see it perfectly in my imagination. And for years I could never get there ... just didn't have the technical skill .... the voice without the hand. Finally, after years of punching away at it ... I won. I could execute just about anything. I remember my teacher, Ben, saying, when I complained about not having the skill to produce what I could see, "be careful what you wish for ... when you can paint anything, then what do you do .... what are you going to paint?" Man, was he ever right.
This is a long way from finished. After the background sets up I can start adding the other elements ... very exciting. In the meantime, need to bring Roxy up to level.
