12:45 PM: i just made a collage using cutouts of calligraphic marks i made last month and was intending to use in my new paintings.
9:44 AM: yesterday we drove to salida so i could get my right eye checked out. it turned out to be nothing; likely the after effects of an ocular migraine i had the previous night. as always, i had my sketch book and colored pencils with me, and made a couple of drawings in the waiting room; this is one of the woman sitting in front of us, at work on her computer as she conversed with friends sitting adjacent.
so now i’m about to get to work on a new painting, using the exquisite extra fine artfix portrait linen, which was delivered a few days ago.
as happens on an almost daily basis, we witnessed an extraordinary sunet sky yesterday, which you can see in this photo i shot from our west facing living room windows.
