I have several paintings in the process and hope to concentrate on finishing them so that I can get started on the large project I have begun. There was a while when I thought I would do fewer or maybe none of the large paintings that I have been known for. I figured I would just do head and shoulders or maybe some naturescapes. During the time of my cataract surgery and recovery, I did that. Even now, I have several awaiting completion. There is one problem. I am having trouble getting glasses that are helpful in seeing and painting the large ones. Simply put, I can use my reading lenses for these smaller ones but they don’t work for the larger ones, so I’m struggling. I’m tired of waiting to get glasses that work so I guess I will just try to paint with vision that isn’t perfect.
These head and shoulders can fool a person. They look simple, then, they aren’t! But another layer of flesh after this dries, a few more bright blond fly away hairs, and, voila! Finished! Talk to you later! Diana
