gained vision III, 80x20”/203x51 cm. as she looked at the end o fmy painting day today.
1:50 PM: i continued work on gained vision III, and stopped just a few minutes ago, mainly because i was tired & didn’t want to do any more until i’m fresh, tomorrow morning.
right now, she is looking a lot like her sister: gained vision II, but that won’t last long. although the figure of the japanese woman in red may remain, the composition will be different, and incorporate what i learned on the previous one. right now, the red of her garment has two tones, due to the fact that i used oil pastels for the upper reds and oil paint for the lower, brighter red.
it’s hard to move this very fine unstretched linen from the work table and tack it to the wall, which is why you see those wrinkles on the bottom half. once she’s completed and stretched, they will dissapear.

12:15 PM: i resumed work on the new gained vision III a little while ago. it’s still very early stage.
