There is something about hockey, I believe, especially in New England, that flows in the deep like no other sport.

Especially fun to explore is the why we didn’t think of that sooner.
Tissue. I used one box of tissue at a time. On the sofa, the box is on the coffee table. In the recliner, I move the box to the side table.
Why? I buy two boxes of tissue at a time. I have no fear of two boxes being opened at the same time. Common sense says one box belongs on the coffee table and the other belongs on the side table. Two boxes. Two places.
No more getting up to go over and grab the tissue box adds a feeling of luxury to my life. If I had half a dozen reading glasses stationed around my home, then I’d be near delirious with happiness.
The process has revealed to me the obstinate side of the subject itself. Thinking the colors command is wrong. The scale is the true master of that landscape. Scale and color should be in harmony with the image my mind sees. Thus far, they are in conflict as I find myself falling deeper into adding details to support my brain’s image.
This is a painting from a photograph that will be a larger painting. So, I eliminated the conflict, stopped and signed the painting. There may be tweaking, as the majority of artwork has, but for now, it is finished.

All y’all, know this day, I have nothing interesting to post about. I look around the room for ideas. Nothing. No subjects jiggle my imagination.
Have an Interesting Weekend
