1:13 PM: i’m feeling that kosode is resolved, but i’ll keep glancing from time to time. this morning i stretched gained vision IV on the new aluminum stretcher bars that were delivered a few days ago. i won’t go into detail, but assumbling the aluminum bars was a bitch!!!
so here you see the newly stretched gained vision IV next to the just completed kosode, tacked to the wall.
i started work on shinkeizou this morning after my stretching adventure. it has the same dimensions as the previous two: 38x20”/96.5x51cm. right now it’s in the exploratory, anything goes phase, with the dominant feature being a large branch in the creek surrounded by foaming water and rocks. but a city view from above has snuck in, along with a HU musician playing his instrument…
at work moments ago on the new painting: shinkeizou
2:17 PM: shinkeizou 38x20” on it’s first day in the world
