Extra Day of Rest

"Barely Constructed" abstract painting on paper, 20
sq, one of two

My planning fell a little short. After placing an order for paper and ink on Friday, Saturday I started printing. I only got 64 images printed before running out of magenta ink. I searched all over Dallas. I found a lot of sources, none of which is open on Sunday.

So I shut down my computer and went to the movie! I was thoroughly entertained by Bruce Willis, who can't be killed. This was a movie to suspend belief, and just enjoy the high tech smashing cars and explosions. Really took me away, that's for sure.

Now I have a meatloaf in the oven, and I'll just have to wait until tomorrow to start the printer up again. I really don't mind that much.

The painting above is one of two that I finished last week, in the midst of all that chaos. I left them on consignment with my gallery.

Proof positive that life is unfair - Bruce Willis cannot be killed.

VERY interesting. Hope to see more of this. It's almost like a petroglyph. COOL.

Sorry for being late on the post here but, of course, I like this one. Can you imagine a small group show? Nudge nudge. Did you move the paper to make the marks, or move the tool? I wouldn't mind seeing a raking angle shot of this one, just to get a feel for the texture.
