What's She Doing Now

My current obsession is painting. It probably my true love…it just doesn’t really love me back. Or maybe I just don’t love it right.

Here is a current piece of art. I always joke that I’m going to stare at any completed work until I hate it. Not sure how to really get around it. So I started something new.

I started this base today. I already don’t like it. If you create art, I’m sure you feel the same. Just never satisfied with what you are doing. If you don’t feel that way…how?

I finished this piece earlier today just so I could quit looking at it. I will pawn if off to the first sucker that walks through my house.

This was a piece I did forever ago. It’s currently in my friends house and she loves it. I avoid the room it hangs it because I can’t bare to see it. I distinctly remember a friend of mine say “just keep trying” after she saw it…crushing.

This painting is arguably the only one I can stand. I still don’t like it. I can see the flaws and it doesn’t quite look like I wanted it to in my head. I still whip it out every fall and slap it in the living room.

I am enrolled in a paining class new week to help me hone my skills before I give up completely for a while. Maybe it help. Guess I’ll just keep trying.
