jazz 14 following todays work
2:15 PM: today is st. philip’s day in the greek orthodox tradition, because of my 15 year stay in greece, it’s something i’m used to celebrating. so chronia polla to me and to my grandson philip in athens.
jazz 14 wasn’t working for me, so i whited over most of it and started fresh, leaving only a trace of the walking plaid-shirted figure and ghost images of the underlying versions. i flipped it 90 degrees, so it’s now 37x35”.
i mainly worked off a photo i shot recently in salida, of a couple on the rocks with their 2 kids. as is my tendency currently, there’s more suggestion than description. there are a few touches of blues, pinks and reds in the clothing and flesh, but nothing hard core descriptive.
i love the unforeseen swirls of oranges that happened when i whited over then scraped into yesterday’s version!
