Blur - 7

Feeling more positive today....I had a good evening last night working on sketches for the next project. I've realised that i ave options here..I can press on, this picture is shaping up to take far longer than i originally estimated.I could leave it and concentrate on the new project or I could crop the composition and settle for a smaller sized picture.

I'm happy now knowing that i don't have to be saddled with something I'm not happy doing.

It look really interesting. How big is it going to be

That's a great realisation for you Niall. I think I had a similar one.

I am still flummoxed (don't you love that word??) about what this is going to be, but I love the shapes and colours in it anyway.

I've had similar feelings too. I get stressed thinking that something that isn't a commission HAS to be done. Then my brain kicks my ass and says, no, you only have to do what you want to do. Then I relax and have fun.

So which ever way you go either completing this, abandoning it, starting a new one, its all good. There are no rules. Just eyes watching :)

I count myself incredibly fortunate to be able to be able to pursue whatever takes my fancy at the moment.It's frustrating for you the viewer as production is slow on my larger pieces. This one tim, is on A£ paper, but as I've just written, I have options as to how big I go...I'm currently thinking I'll crop well before I get to that size.
