"The Gift" original "unfinished" version
So in my studio has sat a painting that had confounded me for a few years now. I wasn't sure if it was done or if it was unfinished. To be clear, I would tell myself it was done, but there was always a little voice in the back of my brain saying "no its not".
Well the other day I decided I needed to paint. I was going through old paintings trying to decide if I wanted to paint over an old so-so one or use a new canvas. While digging around I came across the aforementioned painting and for the first time it struck me that I should finish it...whatever that meant. So I did!
"The GIft" acrylic on 24"x36" canvas. It probably went a completely different direction then what I originally had in mind, but thats kind of what makes the recently finished version cool.
