This painting has the crude boldness of an old film poster, and I like it. I think it is the exaggerated decorative elements of these pictures that will make them interesting. A bit like Paul Klee or Gustav Klimt. I am not interested in taking them down the naturalistic route, I don’t think there will be any surprises there.
Anyway, day 1 is finished. A bit more subtlety is needed but its a good start.
Bird in a tree 14. At the end of day 1.
