3:12 PM: celebration V had too much black, so i re-worked it just now & i think it’s hugely improved.
BELOW: the before & after todays re-work
12:29 PM: i cropped the image of celebration VII and one of those crops proved interesting to pursue as a new painting: celebration VIII. this is a preliminary sketch on the 16x20 linen canvas….let’s see where she goes next!
BELOW: on the left is this mornings sketch; on the right, where celebration VIII was at the end of my painting day
