When a painting is going well you don't want to do something as mundane as change a CD. This meant I was listening to a 3 hour loop of Frankie Valley and the Four Seasons. Luckily, it was 'the best of'. The sky has improved and now has the subtlety, complexity, and dare I say it, the beauty of my initial idea. I think this painting is almost finished. There is a mix of ‘realism’ and odd abstract elements that gel and create an interesting dialogue between them.
