"Sunning Himself"
5" x 7"
acrylic in gessoboard
This is my Clover, again, sunning himself on the back porch. I think it's one of his favorite spots. I liked the way this one was coming along, but then I laid in some colors in the shadows that I did not like and but did not want to cover them up because I was trying to keep the darks thin. So, I decided to leave well enough alone and there you are.
Anyway, I came across this quote on another artist's blog and I think it pretty much sums up why I paint...
"In order to be happy,"
said Winston Churchill, "you need to find a task that requires perfection,
is impossible to achieve, and spend the rest of your life trying to achieve
it."
