The second apology is for the quality of the photos attached to this blog. I still haven’t replaced my ‘water logged’ camera.
About my absence, I got caught up in the day-to-day tasks of living from December to March with mother in residence with me. I found that I was really reluctant to spend time on the computer or painting as I felt I was taking away time to spend with her. She is as you know almost 93 years of age and I know how important it is for her to spend time with her children; doubly important for me to spend time with her. And, unfortunately it takes time to adopt a new routine. So here I am once again, ready for the blogging world.
I give up, I concede. It doesn’t matter how much paint one plasters on a canvas…..you cannot ‘fix’ a canvas that is not working. But I’ve been working diligently, determined to succeed ….. ‘ah ‘tis futile’.
I am reluctant to give up on almost anything; the waterfalls is a large 30”x36” canvas … and to think I stretched it myself!
However, off to the bin with these two. I am determined to look at neither again. But, who knows I may get lucky in the next few days and be invited to an event for someone I really don’t like …. And they get the waterfalls!
This lesson has not been without rewards however, I have discovered a new approach to painting, which I will discuss tomorrow.
Once again, apologies; hope I still have a few readers out there.
Ruby it is so nice to see you back! How cool to be on the list of people that you don't like!
ReplyDeleteI think the waterfall is great, I hear it and can feel the mist!
