2:01 PM: the last time I worked on sparse reflections was august 11th. a lot has happened since then in the evolution of my sound of a flute series. I feel ok about many of the paintings I made at the start of the series. others, not so much. one of them is sparse reflections. here’s how it looked before I resumed work on it this morning (left and mid-way through my painting day today (middle).
my revisions will continue, but I believe that, already, a new aesthetic is visible.
4:28 PM: and below right is how the painting looks at the close of my painting day today. a different painting, really. I may need to simplify somewhat tomorrow.
