I was working on this painting sunday and became very frustrated with it. I am always having to be aware that I must move beyond just copying a photo and try to make it into a painting. I was ready to paint over this one but decided I may as well push it a little bit, add some stamps, move something, do something! Gesso would cover just as well if it didn't work out. Results posted tomorrow. Thanks Zagotta for the inspiration to keep trying.

Things to think about
From Donna Zagotta's blog
No judgments. Paint mindlessly and respond.
Create work you love, then it doesn’t matter what others say.
Who you are is found in what you love.
Every painting has an ADOLESCENT PHASE. Keep going!!
She has a great inspiring web blog:
