And Then There Were Three
I worked on things that can’t be posted yet, and also brought this triple set on a bit. Til the morn, Suzanne 673/700

Canine Intervention
My sometimes lodger on canvas. I will try not to fiddle with this any more, because I could so easily lose the likeness. Til the morn, Suzanne 670/700

Extremities I and II
I don’t think a painting is ever finished, but I have called time on these, beaten my deadline by a day, and written up and submitted the forms for their inclusion in the small works section of an annual exhibition. More on that in the new year. Ta da. Also, I am amused by today’s…

Nearly There
This one is almost, almost finished. Just a couple of tiny adjustments that I am noticing in the photo. The pair to this canvas is needing a bit more work, so I am aiming to finish both tomorrow, which will be a day ahead of the deadline I set myself. Clever me. I suspect the…

Dragging Myself to the Finish Line
I am within touching distance of the finish line with this one, and the painting that is its pair. I’m really hoping I can get the finger out tomorrow and resolve both of them. Ran out of daylight again for the photo, but that’s life here in Scotland in December. Til the morn, Suzanne 663/700

Knuckle Down
I worked on a few different canvases today, and I was avoiding these two, which are under my self-imposed upcoming deadline, but I did pick them up and do some work on them, so I can pat myself on the back for that. They are looking a bit washed out in the photos which is…

30×30 Incoming
As it turns out the judging thingy I was trying not to think about yesterday wasn’t yesterday. The dates are listed in a confusing way, and I’m not quite sure if yesterday was anything at all. Nothing happened, and it looks like the actual date is around the same day I have a self-imposed, sorta,…

December Already
Batching the 12×12″ canvases today, and I played around with the colours on this one. In my sketchbook the painting that inspired this one was a very limited palette, and I have extended the palette a little, which I am starting to enjoy. I really like the version in the sketchbook, but this one looks…

Testing the Tints
Today without even looking at a canvas that is resting, I figured out what is bugging me about it, and what to do about that. I wrote that all down in the notebook I am trying to turn into a studio diary so the thought doesn’t get lost in all the other thoughts. I carried…

Party of Four
Back to batching and the collection of canvases in various stages of completion. I worked on these four today, and I enjoyed swapping them back and forth after bringing them on a little, it was a nice change of rhythm after a lot of focus being on one canvas. The bottom right one is probably…

Finished, for now
I think she is finished, but then again I might go back in to the face a bit more, I will know in the morning. The face wasn’t the interesting part for me, it’s the foot and the hand that I focused on here. I considered leaving the face very minimal and abstract, and I…

Back and Forth and Forward
I’m still pushing and pulling between the earlier versions and playing with colour. I did come up with a luscious skin tone blend that I’m going to have to make a proper note of, because it’s making me very happy. I am terrible for not making notes and then looking at a painting and have…
