NYSE

against my better judgment, i thought i'd have a go at artist karen jurick s' "different strokes from different folk" challange.

why against my better judgment? because i don't normally do so much detail in paintings,

and as it happens this weeks challange is a painting about the NY stock exchange! gazillion people, paper, screens.... AHHHHH.

needless to say i took much longer time - burn some neurons- painting than i normally do.

why don't i take some time- PLAN- the painting before jumping in with two feet i ask you, it would save me so much time problem fixing.

this was very interesting. I'm not exactly ecstatic about the out come, but i'm not unpleased either. so there. peace and out.

Ode to music

I haven't posted a thing here in so long that I don't even know where to start!

I may not have posted but i HAVE been painting.

I noticed IF's theme for the week is "stings", and so

I'll start with this musical painting I painted some days ago.
