Ah


I completed the first oil painting that I've done in several years. Quite happy with the way it turned out. It was good fun and as relaxing as I recall. I did need to start with something loose, not detailed--to get back into the feel of it all, handling the brushes and the paint. It is like riding a bike. Well, not quite. It's more than just throwing paint on the canvas... There are more control issues than with riding a bike. At any rate, it was good to be back in the paint. Many ideas spring to mind for other paintings. I can't wait.
