2:10 PM: i worked into jazz 10, making it all but unrecogizable from where it was yesterday. i like where it’s at right now, so i’m stopping here for the day. looking at it tacked to the wall next to previous paintings in the jazz series, it holds its own. that bit of yellow on the right takes it to a new place.

12:10 PM: i wasn’t satisfied with jazz 10 when i cast my first glance this morning, so i’m entering no man’s land and following my gut as to where to go next. i’m listening to what the painting wants and putting what i think i want on the back burner.
