Day 68. Putting it Into Practice

8×10, oil on canvas SOLD

Yesterday I talked about not procrastinating so today I put my new goal into practice. I did a commissioned painting I’ve been meaning to do for a while. I also made a couple of adjustments to my day 39 painting which I created for the same collector.

Again, like yesterday, this one has a few more strokes to go. I’m finding that spending ten to fifteen minutes on a “finished” painting the next day, really gives it what it needs to actually be finished.
