Something's Happening Here


I have nothing finished to share this post but I am
always partial to what shows promise in a painting. 
I really do enjoy all the steps along the way, 
error and "no, no, no's" and all!
Here, I like the energy and the texture,
something is happening, I'm just not sure what! 


This is a detail from a large (for me) canvas 36"by 24" canvas.
I won't have a problem cutting it up, but I do long for
a uniform composition that works throughout the piece.
That is always, always, the evolving work, and nothing
I have mastered this far!


I like the texture here, but it is all a mishmash of patterns, the strain
toward meaning. Tomorrow is another day, another go
at realizing / manifesting something undefinable.

I'm wondering if your trip to NY is making a scene on your canvas?
