Daily painting blog - day #11. Paintings, as with life, can present situations we don't know how to deal with. One painting was photographed yesterday when it was half done - then it was rephotographed today. By looking at the two images, it completely revealed how complicated emotions can be.
I thought the work was near done yesterday except that I hated it. My mind was reeling with conversations I wanted to have with my people. My energy was dark and negative. Thus, it was reflected in the painting.
Today, resolutions to those imagined conversations came to mind and I imagined I was playing that 80's video game Pac-Man while lightening up the dark areas thus lightening my mood. This was a highly successful day of painting for me!
