Knowing When To Stop Is Important

The first painting is an example of taking a painting that had a few problems, trying to fix them, making it worse, and wildly trying to end up with something that even vaguely looked like the thing that I was trying to paint. It would have been better to stop and accept that it was a painting that had a few problems. Believe me, it was better at an earlier point.  Not good, but better.


The second one is better. This was a different mug and I got pretty close on the handle shape. It was very straight at the top and curved at the bottom.



It's been a tough week, My brain is a bit distracted and it shows. I'm glad that I had time to paint today and I am still enjoying mixing colors that whisper.
