Image 1630631 Dear Subscribers, Greetings. Happy Holidays! New still life. Stages: The Setup The Setup I found free glass blocks on the street at a remodel. So I took one. Cool object. Often an object will lead to an idea. Block-in Block-in Someone REALLY likes still life objects. Very excited about still life objects. Image 1638211 Thoughts. Painting allows me the freedom to not be exact. Coming from a technical drawing background and an inborn tendency towards perfectionism, this is a great relief. When I say perfectionism I'm framing it in a negative sense: The inability to make efficient progress because of an obsession over detail...aka paralysis. This is a large part of my gravitation towards painting. I don't need to measure or use a straight edge or use an elliptical template etc.. because paint is the ultimate medium. All mistakes are forgiven. Not that this loose approach is superior to any other approach. It's just one way to get a painting done. My preferred way.
