A Brilliant End, 2009. oil on panel 5 3/4 x 9 3/4 sold
This is a small painting that I just finished and took to the holiday show at the Elliott Fouts Gallery.
This little study was, I hesitate to say, was almost effortless to paint. Everything went so smoothly. That doesn't happen often; maybe a hand full of times a year. Every decision I made was the correct one. There was very little correcting of the composition or color as I painted. Mix color. Put color down. Mix next color. Continue. I can remember as I was working on this piece, I began to actually shake, out of excitement or nervousness, I'm not sure which, I just knew I didn't want to screw it up.
Enjoy.
