museumscape, 16x40” 2 joined canvases, as it looked following this morning’s modifications
12:54 PM: this painting on two joined 16x20” canvases has been drifting about for months, perhaps years. it started as an abstracted creekscape and thus has familiar creek elements: branches, leaves, indications of flowing water.
mikela was looking at it the other day and suggested i go back into it, which i did this morning. originally a vertical, i worked on it horizontally, adding architectural elements and two seated figures, which i had photographed from above in i can’t recall which museum, probably in denver.
i stopped here because it seemed to me i may have achieved what i set out to do. so now i’ll move on to a new 14x16” canvas; one of the 5 with those dimensions that i stretched last month.
