Here is an odd sight. I delivered all my large paintings to the gallery the other day,
and now there is a big empty spot where they all were on my racks. Weird...
So now we only have three weeks until the opening. I still could use maybe one or two more smaller pieces to round out the show. I have these ones that i just sanded down. I work on wood panels mostly, and this is one of the advantages. You can get the palm sander out and get rid of stuff....
And this is what i had by the end of the day:
and this...
So the odds are pretty damn slim that i will finish even two out of these three in the remaining time. The opening is Feb 8. If just one of these finishes up, i will consider that pretty good. I am a very slow painter. I wish i could just dash them out, but such is my process. I am using a good amount of drier at this stage to speed up the process. Let's hope the magic happens.
The invitations for the show should be out soon. Stay tuned.

do you paint
then sand down
all your
paintings?
The opening night is never the big relief I expect it will be. The big relief is always taking everything to the gallery and knowing it's a done deal.
Wish I could see these in person---they look very different from last years work.
