thursday...

looks like 'zoe' will be finished sometime today....nice looking painting...she has one of those 'old soul' faces...

the rest of today will be spent preparing canvases for the next lot of portraits...i think i'll be able to fit in four more before my december 15th deadline...after that and until the second week in january, i'll be working on the small paintings for the 100 for $100 each studio show...i'll be working on some of these paintings while sitting near the gulf of mexico...i know, why don't i just read a book or rest while away?...painting is a habit and if i am not painting i'm photographing...i just have to do something creative every day...although, i suppose arranging the little umbrellas and fruit on toothpicks in some tropical drink can be very fulfilling, creatively speaking...

back to work...
