This has caused several things to happen and made me realise some important things.
- It is important to document your work; it shows process and progress
- Not all work is or should be for sale
- Sometimes you have to work through the dross before you get to the good stuff
- When you hit a good flow of work go for it, go for it, go for it...
- I need to edit my work more
- I am overly critical of my own work (are we all?)
- sometimes the dross is where the gold is...
Other things of passing interest:
I could not get past painting red circles so in 2005 I stopped painting for a while.
Even when I did n't put the predominent colour on the pallete (actually I use a white plate) the colour still ended up dominating the painting. It was very frustrating. Some times you just have to go with it or change meduim. I could not stop painting blue so in 2008 I stopped painting for a while.
