Every painting has a start! That's the biggest step in the game! Now everything is possible! Adjacent possible! So glad to see your post!

Woke up this morning having forgotten I'd even posted!

Thanks for welcoming me as I step back into my studio.

Yes, the adjacent possible! yes yes yes

Hi Sheila, yes. Finding my way back into my studio, one drip and dribble at a time.

I LOVE this!
Makes me think about the time (long time ago) that I was 'obsessed' with what in Dutch is called 'materie-schilderkunst'. I don't know what it's called in English, but something like 'painting with 'matter''. Love it!

Simone, what fun to have you celebrate my simple act of pouring some gesso onto a canvas and photographing the results before spreading it out with a bruah! And to have a name for what I've created: materie-schilderkunst! thank you!
