How my Paintings control me….

Shaft of Light
I was reading Connie William’s Blog. She’s a wonderful Painter who’s so meticulous. I am amazed at painters who has this much patience. I wish I had one hundredth of it. I am like an express train trying to put everything I feel for a subject right then and there. With oils I get so impatient because that darn medium doesn’t dry fast enough. I usually get it muddy to the point I want to throw it away. Then I get back to it after a few days and forgive it and start working again. For me I’ve noticed if I try to control it, it goes GRRRRR…. at me. So eventually I let the painting control me.

Hello Kushl,
Enjoy the process.
It was really fun to read your thoughts that were triggered by my post. My paintings growl at me sometimes too!
