4:46 PM: i did a lot today, on all 3 paintings i’ve been working on the past few weeks. on japanese creek for example, i opened more white space, taking out the green trees on the upper left nad taking out the dark red swirl on the right. it’s just a better painting, period!
5:29 PM: what i did on july 7 creek was somewhat similar: more white space, less busyness.
the green on top ahs been reduced. and what was left of the large rock in the foreground has been divided up into a series of smaller rocks surrounded by a touch of creek water.
