Labor Day Weekend

Another overcast day, with probable rain. As some of you know, I'm reluctant to do major work on such days. The paint doesn't flow the way I expect, and usually I'm unhappy with the result. This past week I've done the two oil pastel drawings shown here today.

This is "Spriral" (16X20). A crumby title, but the best I have at the moment. I'm open to suggestions for a better title. This is the reworking of an old drawing I did years ago.



"Asgaard" (20X16) is totally new. I'm considering doing an oil version of this one.



I just keep chugging along. I expect to enter a couple of paintings in an exhibition downtown on Thursday. The theme is supposed to be "Autumn" and that is a bit of a stretch for the pieces I intend to use. Probably I'll take them "Sandia Moon" (see perviously posted picture), and "Wisdom of Trees". I intended to post a photo of that little painting, but can't figure out how to add a picture during the editing process. Someday I hope to be able to format and edit this blog so that it will look like I want it to look. Oh well ............
