jazz 16 after i flipped it 90 degrees.
3:29 PM: yesterday while gazing at jazz 16 hanging in our bedroom, it occured to me/us that it would be a far more interesting painting if it were turned on it’s side. here’s the result.
to the right you see how it looked before the flip. it’s still a pretty interesting composition, but now i/we find it more compelling.
today was one of those rare days when i didn’t paint at all. i spent the whole morning trying to figure out how to adjust the thermostat in my studio. it’s impossibly complicated, and all the tech guys i spoke to agreed. rather than try and adjust it so that it’s set lower at night and goes up to 70F during the day, i just set it for a constant 70F …her it worked..i’ll know in the morning wheter or not it worked. it was way chilly in there today, and was snowing all day.
this is how jazz 16 looked before flipping it yesterday
