Pompeii painting and more

 This close-up of the painting in the last post still isn't an accurate depiction
 either, but this photo shows more of the textures. (thanks Julie for your comment!)
 The temps here in the desert are not conducive to working in the garage studio so I've set up a workspace on the bathroom counter. The really nice thing about the counter is there is a second sink to the right just out of frame. I can leave the mess painting for awhile without it being in my way.
I adore paint when it blends into each other. I have no idea where this painting is going to go. If I were to say that I have a process, it's just to start!

Thank you for the detail photo, that's a great texture you've achieved. I love building up surfaces for paint (when I used to paint). Your texture adds to the atmosphere of Pompeii. There is an exhibition on in London about Pompeii at the moment but I think we've missed the chance to see it, should have gone sooner.

Lovely textures. Glad you have found a cooler place to work.

I adore your painting you put in the living room and the one in process is so lively. Yay for painting indoors. I am so happy for you!!

Pompeii painting is amazing, the texture is to die for. The colors are scrumptious.

It is good not to know where it is going... I love it when I realize that!! xx

That's a wonderful observation- that your process is to start. I just love that!
