I didn’t like the AI-generated sky in Landscape 3 so I just put a thin layer of white over almost all of it. I think I’ll paint stratus clouds.

Worked on Landscape Painting 8. This is only 8″ x 10″ so it’s possible to work on the entire thing in one sitting. Two or three more sessions and it should be finished.

Worked on the background and foreground of Still Life 3. I’ll probably work on the background and foreground two or three more times before covering it with a colored transparent glaze.

Last Tuesday I had cataract surgery on my right eye. It’s pretty good now but at this point, I need a new eyeglass prescription. Next Tuesday I’ll have surgery on my left eye. A month later I’ll get the new prescription so it will be about six weeks before I have the correct eyeglasses.
Worked on the background and foreground of Still Life 5. I’ll probably do that another two times before covering it with a transparent light tannish brown. Then I’ll be able to finish the objects.

Glazed the background of Still Life 2 with Transparent Brown Oxide and French Ultramarine Blue. I’ll probably glaze it one more time before finishing the table and objects of the painting.

Think I have things with my blog back to where it was before I deactivated it.

Worked on the middle and foreground of Landscape 2. None of the painting is finished.

I reactivated my site. I turned it off because I didn’t like the pressure of posting every time I worked on a painting but I realized after one day that this is what kept me painting every day. Sometimes when I work on a painting it’s a step backward and sometimes they stink.
This morning I played with this little painting. Not even close yet.
