Reappearance
Still having camera/Vista issues. Shall try and obtain a better photo taking the painting out into the daylight.
This painting is based on drawings done of the model turning and walking around. Its a wonderful exercise to try and detach yourself, use sense and intuition to absorb information from the moving figure and capture it on paper. Working from these drawings I tried the same exercise with paint on canvas, trying to focus more on a sense of form and weight rather than detail. Sense and intuition is a strange thing. It is no easier to apply it in artmaking then it is in any other area of one's life. One just has to trust.

Fantastic. If this is what trusting does for you, keep on doin' it!
