… woke up this morning way before 5:00 and dashed into the studio …. wondering what on earth I did yesterday. I think I like the direction the background is going. I’m sure I like the symbolism. And I think a viewer could like it even without “the story” … well, if Venus is good … no pressure there!

So that’s what is happening today … back to the figure and the face. It’s usually about 10:00 when the light steadies enough to do some real painting. Dark is ok to studio paint, and light is ok … but those shoulder times are tough … the light moves all over the place. Ok… here we go, Venus.
