This is one of those pictures that doesn’t give itself up easily. I have been bashing it about today with only a notion of what I want out of it. I was chasing a more fluid and tonal painting, for some reason I had Roualt in mind. It has moved in that direction and it is better but I am not sure if I have arrived at where I want to be. I suspect not, time is running out.
