Another Examination of Process

10/3/2016

These are the stages I went through to finish this piece.  You get an idea of how the seeds were planted early on for figure and ground and story.  Painting for me is a bit like carving.  I start with a rough block.  I also want to be entertained while I paint so I don't want to know what is going to happen.  If I were to plan and draw it all out before hand the painting might be better in a traditional sense but I would not enjoy the process as much.  What does this painting mean?  I have not titled the painting yet so I am not really sure.  I am still learning from it.   I find it fascinating to focus on one area of the painting and watch the changes.
