Here is an officially completed painting—official because Jim photographed it. There are snapshots of it in progress on previous blog posts. The painting, Water Jazz, is large—2 canvases which when bolted together make the painting 58 inches x 80 inches. Here it is:

And yes, I’m really am working on ten paintings at once. Don’t ask me how this happened. Perhaps a bit of panic at my rapidly approaching shows? Four of the paintings are actually 4 separate panels which will end up as 2 paintings—a long & square panel each for each painting. So maybe I should say I’m working on 8 paintings at once. All in different stages of completion. Since I don’t have enough room on my easel, I have a bunch of paintings I’m working on flat on tables. You should see me dancing back and forth across my studio applying paint—it’s quite aerobic.

Here’s a painting that’s maybe (with luck) be getting close to completion:

And here are 6 (or 8 depending on how you count them), flat on tables:

Enough of this spending time on the computer—I need to get my apron on and get to painting!
