Monday

I have done a lot of work on my two landscapes that I started last Friday. I finished the Gauguin landscape. It is definatley my favorite landscape so far. Its nice because I had more creative freedom on this one. Today I was working on my other recent landscape, the one of my backyard. I painted in all the shapes and now I just have to define everything so it has that finished look and neat quality. I like this one too. I think the composition is really interesting and I like the mood of it. Also, I worked on the "the Holiday" which is that big painting on the cement wall. I was kind of stuck on what to do for it but now I feel like I am back on track, thanks to my sponsors critique. I have to break up the background because all of the red is making the painting flat, work on their clothes to create more movement and finish the exploding head. I should have it done this week. I have two more landscapes to do and I want to another figurative painting which would make 10 total!
