FIFTH WEEK OF PAINTING

The canvas was raised to the ceiling most of the week.

GOODBYE OCTOBER! IT HAS BEEN A GOOD PAINTING MONTH. My mind and body are tired after this week of painting, but I feel good about what has been done. Hands, fingers, feet, toes, shoes, rocks, clothes, doll. I need to take a long walk and get some fresh air. 
          I didn't get through Brita's face again - next week. I found some interesting radio stations on the web to listen too while painting - a classical station from Toronto, Canada, and a wonderful mix of music from a Swedish station. My brush began moving faster at times with the music bringing me to the end of an intense week.
          It is nice to see the figures "grounded" and little toes peeking out of the grass. Check back next week, the boys are going to begin entering the picture!
