3:35 PM: so what did i do today in my studio? nothin!
i think all the smoke in the valley from the california wildfires in addition to allergy season, has just knocked us both for a loop. i had wanted to continue the tokyo olympics painting i started yesterday, but at least i had the good sense not to touch it today. i had also wanted to make changes to my home page. if you take a look, you’ll see i took the first step, but it’s too small. i need to have a conversatiopn with the squarespace team, hopefully tomorrow. i want it to have 4 to 6 paintings characteristic of the various series i’ve made over the past decades. and i want the visitor to be able to click on any of those sample paintings and go to the corresponding page on my site. so, assuming i feel better in the morning, i’ll try and take care of it then. i’ve been wanting to do this for a long time, because my site needs to be easier to navigate. pople want to just click & go.
here’s an example of one of my best watercolors, which i’d like to be on the home page with a link to this page on my site: https://www.philiptarlow.com/2021-creek-oils
BELOW: one of my recent creek oil paintings that i’ve alredy put on my home page. it’s representative of where i’m currently at in my process.
