An Island Dream


An Island Dream

Painting from Life on a larger scale lately.
It has challenged me and I feel the struggle.
The space I feel with street painting has all been worked out, but here, figuring it out spontaneously, making those important decisions become
very frustrating sometimes.

I worked through this piece and found certain areas that worked for me better than others. I guess the sweetness comes from working through the hard stuff.

The best advise I have had, from my dear friend and mentor Rod is to keep painting, so that is what I shall do. Struggle through and hopefully improve as I go.
