Monday Night June 29

went to bed at 8 friggen o'clock. Of course woke up at 1am.

went down to make some paintins. Can't loose hard fought momentum and settle back into non-production. Artistic inertia works both ways, body making art tends to stay making art, body not making art tends to stay not making art...BUT...this is only the case in a vacuum. Unless constant force is applied a body making art will succumb to friction and slowly come to rest again as a body not making art. THEN to get going again one has to fight both the inertia AND friction to get going again.

I made changes to Manpower painting




and started roughing in Swamp Monster head in gray and white primer.

Mourning Mojo Painting




I've prepped the surface upon which to paint, I'm almost down with the image I'm going to paint...now I just need to decide if I'm going to keep the two figures in medieval style robes or make them timeless, more subtly evoking the Christian paintings or keep it obvious like they are now.
