u.s. open 2 following today’s work
u.s. open 3 as it looked following today’s session
1:45 PM: i painted all morning, working on the next stages of u.s. open 2 & 3, & hit my limitof energy a few minutes ago. so i’ll post what i did, run into town to pick up a newly baked loaf of sourdough bread, then drive back home & lie down with mikela, who just returned from a conference she attended a few minutes ago.
one new element that has entered both paintings is a vibrant pink. and in u.s. open 3, a tennis player viewed from above with his racket poised for a serve. both paintings still need work, but i’m taking it real slow, since each has a very delicate balance and each, i believe represents a big step forward in the work i’ve been doing over the past 6 months, sice we returned form our trip to greece.
