Almost

painting is a process.  apply paint, look at shapes and color, apply more paint.  

in between there is a lot of looking and doing nothing.   so there are a lot of

partially finished works in my studio.  waiting for the next step.  there is no

urgency.   when the time is right,  it is right.  i worked on this painting 

yesterday.  she is almost finished.  almost.

on a random note, i was taken by this charming setting in santa monica

right on the  parkway.  there are even magazines in the basket for loungers.  

the sign reads

slow down

happiness 

is trying to

catch you

thank you for stopping by today.  

i am linking with others at paint party friday who have have played with paint this week.
