progress of a painting







Three different layers of pattern are interposed on the textured canvas background. It is a laborious and repetitive process, but a very necessary process in the journey towards the finished piece. The patterns suggest a passing of time, shared histories, and a sense of place. The final layer will ultimately obscure much of this work, and take with it some of the meaning, but this is done purposefully, and with intention. I leave the studio today feeling contemplative.
