IsabeauxStudio

Ok,  so I am acutely frustrated with my lack of workspace.  Yes my outdoor studio will be great on the weekends when it is warmer,  but I am not painting in the evenings after work like I used to.  I didn't realize how much I utilized my studio during the week until now and I really feel the lack of it.

So as a temporary measure until I can figure something else out,  I have dragged one of my outdoor tables, indoors- and set that up. Yes, it is in the middle of everything. Whatever.  So finally I got to painting last Friday, I started at 11pm, and was up until 2 a.m.  I really must buy a clock for the living room.

 I am working trying to finish the piece, "It is as if I was made from stone," and was painting badly. Very badly.  The good thing was that it was on Yupo (as described previously) and if you don't like something, you can just wipe it away.  Which I did, multiple times.  By the end of the weekend, this is where I left off.

 You can see on the left and right sides at top, where I have wiped the paint away, leaving the initial simple sketch.  The dark texture at the top center, looks really great but I don't think it goes with the rest of it.  I will probably change it as I further complete the piece.

Tune in later, as I am off to paint now, I will post the next round.  I am sure the whole thing will completely change again.
