Is it wrong to fall deeply in love with your own work? If it is, I am guilty. If I told you how many months it took for this painting to come together, you probably wouldn’t believe me. It was torturous. It was on my easel, and then off my easel. Sometimes, sitting in a corner longer than it was on the easel. It was going nowhere, and I didn’t think I would ever finish it.

The problem was my palette. I couldn’t get it figured out, so I started to cover it up with black paint. It was about to get painted over completely when it came to me..the palette was alllll wrong. What I needed to do was turn the colors into something I love. That’s when the purple and orange disappeared, and in came more black, white, and gray. Finally, it was working, and I was excited with what I was seeing transform before my eyes. Imogen.
