I am having a real tug of war lately between my oils and my gouache.

I have things I really have to get done in oils. Paintings that are unfinished

make me very uncomfortable.

This morning I painted all morning, but I noticed that my heart just

wasn't in it. Have I become a "gouche painter"? Who knows? But it

sure seems like it. For one thing, it's just so much easier. No solvent,

no washing the brushes when I'm done. And, there is something about

the particular mercurial characteristics of the watercolor and the

gouache that I just love.

We'll I'll just keep this up like this for a while and see how it goes.

Today I asked the angels to help me. I believe that they did.

Thanks for stopping by today.

This is another in the series of small gouaches that I have been doing

lately. I painted in oils all morning, and just couldn't keep from grabbing

the gouache by about 3 PM. This isn't the greatest piece I've ever done, but

it has a certain feeling that I like. I figure if I keep on doing them I can't

help butget better and better. Anyway, it is really fun.

Thanks for visiting today.
