work in progress #2... 9/26/09

This is the second piece I started yesterday. Today I placed the painting in the frame intending to paint part of the frame like with the previous painting. However, it seems to work fine the way it is. I know that if I begin touching up here and there, before you know it, it would get a labored feeling, lose some of the freshness or spontaneity. Will set this aside too and instead begin a new painting. If I look at this painting in a week or so I will probably figure out what else to do with it. Untitled, oil on Baltic birch wood, 13.5 x 11.5 inches. Click on picture for larger image.
