still life painting

still life painting

I have been doing so much for other aspects of my business and life, that painting on canvas had become sort of new to me again. I did a very small painting of pumpkins that is okay, but nothing great to make or see. I then started to work on a street scene which would be suitable for my show at EurekaThyme next month that I am planning to focus on paintings of local imagary. That painting was nothing but work. I kept telling myself to put in the time, make it work, keep going until it comes together. I let this go on for two days and then realized there was nothing about that particular scene that I was excited about portraying. It was pretty enough, I guess, but it lacked any story or meaning to me. I abandoned it and did the above piece. Ahhh, the flow returned! I had a great time with this painting and I’m enjoying hearing other’s interpretations of it. What does it say to you?
