| Yikes! |
We had a paint-in for Tri-County Art League today, which is where we all bring what we are working on, or something new - and just paint together as a group, visiting and breaking for lunch. I had stopped and bought sunflowers on my way from the gym for my painting subject. Without the right tool to cut them down, and no vase - I stood the tall stalks up in a glass that I found in the kitchen. I had big plans to complete two or three paintings today.....but too much visiting kept me down to one! My day was heavily scheduled - before and after this paint-in, so I had several other stops, an appointment and dinner out with the family, before I could return home with my painting and gear. When I did open my trunk - to my surprise - my yoga mat from this morning's pilates had rolled back and forth over my painting - which DID have some heavy palette knife work on it's surface! Silly me! Why didn't I grab my wet panel carrier before heading out early this morning? Well, "Fantastic" cleaned the oils from my mat, and a few additional strokes with my knife and paint repaired the damage to the painting. Ahhhh.....just another adventure in daily painting! This one makes 960 paintings in 960 days :)
