thoughts of a shy painter

Wipe out

​This little painting made me happy.  Yesterday.   Today I decided that it was not what I wanted, so I wiped it out.   I used to feel that painting over or wiping out a painting was admiting defeat.   Now it feels empowering.   I will NOT burden myself with art I don't like.  So there.

I might have kept it; but at least you made a picture of it.

    I'm a painter.   I find joy in mimicking the world around me in oil paint.   Go figure.
