The hardest thing about this week’s painting was getting it photographed.  I suppose that’s a good problem to have.

I started this painting with the idea that it would be a negative space pour.  Is it just me or do you find you have a hard time putting down the resin cup? Painting #37 was the lucky do-over painting this week.  I mixed seven ounces of resin.  I put 3/4 of an ounce each into… Read more »
