3PM: it's unusual for me to leave a painting in such a state. but it got cloudy & dark & i need to make the p.o. before it closes at 3:45. so now i have something to look forward to tomorrow. see ya then,my friends.

now that i look at it from 30 feet, it's definitely got something....something i rarely allow to happen without quickly moving towards greater resolution. could it be this is resolution? i'll know in the morning...

12:38 PM: what i did yesterday was good but not good enough. i kind of knew that even before entering the studio this morning. so i flipped it 90 degrees & covered it with an off-white, then scraped off the excess & started drawing into it with warm grey oil stick, which you see here. 

updates will be posted as they occur.
