I've been so worried to make a "shitty" painting that I don't make any. I've allowed my fear of making art to take over for too long. I've reached my breaking point. I came to the realization that I will not be able to make an awesome painting without making a whole lot of shitty paintings. So here I go...no control z...just mineral spirits!

painting 47 (still life in Portland)
painting 46 (Domino's Pizza in Portland)
This was the first painting of the year. I visited my friend Nathan in Portland this January. I wanted to paint this Domino's pizza in my last visit in the summer but we didn't have enough time because we painted in so many other locations. This place caught my eye mainly because I found the solar panels to be interesting. Only in Portland you would see solar panels on a popular pizza chain restaurant. It was really cold when we were painting. We held heat warmers in our pockets and wore tons of layers, but it was still uncomfortable! This is my training for colder climates. Plus I'll appreciate the warmer days. I must stay disciplined if I ever want to paint snow!
