I was slowing down to a Vermeer level of output but without the expectation of producing a masterpiece. Finally, this painting has justified the effort and faith I have put into it. I really don’t know why I kept returning because I wasn’t sure how to turn it around, I knew I just wasn’t happy with it. I seem to be interested in artists whose work bares little resemblance to my own and my thought is that I am trying to push towards a different approach with my painting. I am not sure how to get there other than to keep working? I think the key is to rely on an accumulation of intuition. The painting is finished.
