Oh! I think I may be done tinkering with some of the concepts around my next series of large paintings! This calls for a celebratory nap.

Wanna see something sexy?

I feel like I have to learn how to paint all over again and I'm kind of excited about it!

My current painting is finally starting to look like something I painted and I couldn't be more pleased.

The best way to learn to paint is to paint.

The second best is to watch someone more skilled than you paint.

The next best is to be forced to collect your thoughts in order to teach someone how to paint.

I had an opportunity over the past two days to paint a mural for a lovely family here in Albania. Here it is all finished on their balcony!

I need to paint Lady D, don't I?

I feel I need to paint Lady D.

I don't know what to paint next, but I know I want it to be something amazing!

Well, my hopes have been dashed -- hopefully it's just temporary.

Little study on the easel today.

Apparently The Bride enjoys her morning coffee, too.

Apparently.

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

What do you mean that, when planning "fine art" I don't have to make sure there's a rich and robist narrative being illustrated? I... I can just paint what I want because it looks cool?

I have seven paintings laid out and pretty much set to go to the next step. I did a single color study and a flaw in my plan was laid bare and want to take the whole series back to formula.

I'm not mad. This is just how it goes sometimes.

I'm 20% through my painting goal for the year!

Most of that was hustle this month trying to make up lost ground due to a late start, but I did it!

Wait... maybe it works with a HEFTY delay? Maybe?

All I wanted to do today was paint but my head conspired against me and I was down for the count.

Scrubbed it out.
Resisting the urge to scrub out the little painting I'm working on and trying again at a later date. Just having a real bad day at the easel, apparently.

I know I'm my own worst critic, but man, today's been a low day.
April 21, 2026 at 10:55 PM
I understand the theory, I've just been having a hard time mixing it lately. And that's a bummer.

Stay clear of this person! Its obviously a fake/troll account. Random death threats is a bit to far though, what the actual fuck! 😂💀

Might have to go in and fix the recent study. Something about it isn't sitting right with me.
