I really love, love, love this one. I really feel that I am getting back to the loose and free painting I have missed.
The title, well, this rooster's expression reminds me of the character (The Continental) Christopher Walken plays on SNL - the debonair yet extremely desperate lover wannabe. There are clips on youtube if you're not familiar.

For those of you keeping up, another court date is tomorrow for the felon.

I'm on a roll. How great is it to have a job that you can still get excited about?

I'm getting restless. I've always painted fairly quickly but I have slowed considerable when doing the previous daily paintings. This particular piece is more how I like to paint. I feel a lot more comfortable with the broad strokes and the variety of colors (wait until you see tomorrow's post).
The paintings I did in the 1990's were very colorful and fanciful. They were mostly interiors that I made up in my head. And they sold very well. Then, when I started painting en plein air, my work became more realist and I was really enjoying what I was learning. Now I've reached a point where I want to combine both disciplines.
Tell me if you like this new work. That's part of the purpose of this blog - feedback.

I swear I am trying to get back on the horse. Fall is the busiest time for me. I've got 3 shows between now and the end of the year. Good for me, not as good for my blog.

The Post Office seems to have mislaid one of my paintings I shipped to a buyer. So here is the redo. But before I could pack it to ship, my buyer emailed me thanking me for the new one. Well, I hadn't sent the new one; she got the original...the post office only took 29 days to travel what I can drive in 2 hours. Perhaps I should have walked up there. Crazy!

I miss you guys. My subscribers are so supportive and I don't get to hear from them unless I post. Look forward to hearing from you again.

P.S. Court is October 22nd for those of you keeping up with the drama.
