why i paint what i paint #22
This 24" x 24" oil on canvas is a painting of my painting partner and me...painting. I am very happy with the fragmented, unfinished nature of the image. I am stunned over and over, how much more 'realistically' this way of mark-making conveys the truth of a thing, story, person than the very crisp, realistic, finished work. I think it has something to do with the 'river-ish' nature of our lives. The minute we step in to the water...THAT water has moved on.
