2:56 PM: i felt skoufa II was at an impasse & was wishing i had left some white canvas to allow it to breathe, so i went back to skoufa. i painted over the green leaves i had painted in with the orangy color of the tiles, leaving some leaf shapes. i extended the grey floor tiles and introduced a green on the blouse of one of the standing female figures. it’s improved but needs more work.
right now, i’ve got chills, which is one of the predicted side effects of the Synvisc knee injections i got yesterday in Salida. so i think i’ll go lie down. mikela got the same shot, but only in 1 knee, but she’s feeling chills too.
