My goal of doing 6 paintings in 6 weeks- Well that didn’t work out…I lost 2 weeks waiting on some stretcher-bars that were held up by customs. -They didn’t even charge me anything for them!… Wtf??…Anyway, straight after that I had two painting failures in a row!!!….I guess I put too much pressure on myself… Continue reading So, I’ve had a shitty last couple of weeks…
