I am still trying to attempt navigating through blogger. I wonder even if it is a useful feature in my life. I struggle to find time for real people and now spending time here takes me away even more . May be it is just because I am so slow in expressing myself verbally. Paraphrasing Edward Hopper "if I would be good with words I would not be painting." Ha ha, I hope I am better at painting.

Not happy with plans. "Solitude" 30x30 oil and collage

I took few days more like a week off. actually I just could not paint at all. WENT THROUGH FRUSTRATION FRUSTRATION FRUSTRATION. I decided to read more about color theory and color wheel, and what do you think all of a sudden a cannot paint at all,I am so confused with knowledge . Seriously ignorance is bliss. I was totally unaware of my own foibles. Now I look at the painting that I was totally happy about and really want to jump on it and do some color adjustments, as soon as Iwill stop worrying about destroing it. I am still at the first stage of romance with painting kind of feeling of being  in love.
