. . . painted it twice




This is a small painting of another angle of the side of the dumpster. See the photograph here. It was my practice run. After painting this one, I painted a larger one, 36 x 36". I don't think I have ever painted the same thing twice. But I'm happy with both of them.

Who else could get such beauty from a dumpster...

I like it, an excellent abstract copied from nature. Bravo!

this one is fabulous-- sometimes it pays to do a small one before you do such a large one-- well that is large to me :-)

Jazz, I'm sure there are other weirdos out there somewhere.

Ian: High praise indeed from an artist I truly admire.

JB: Thanks so much.

Donna: I should make that practice a habit, especially when I really want to capture something that is special to me.
