it really is a heart-shaped flower. I really am sticking to the theme.
But also, painting requires more than the 1-2 hours of studio time I’ve been taking lately. I may need to take some time off from the dailies, to finish some things that I’m not happy leaving where they are now.

painting just takes more time. This one may need more work. But I’m loving the richness of colors, and trying to keep the feeling spontaneous and breezy

This was meant to show hearts in it somewhere but I got too invested in the rocks. So let’s just say the hearts are within the rocks that are falling, floating or flying away.

you have to let the ones you love fly when it’s time for them to go

Probably not finished, but more hearts are on the way

I guess I’m ok with spending a month on sweetness. Not that love and hearts are always sweet, but I’ve spent enough of my life censoring that which I thought was unserious because it was pretty.

The theme of February’s Group Show at the gallery is “Hearts and Love”. I don’t know if I’ll be willing and able to stick with the theme for every daily this month, but it will be somewhere in the back of my mind in any case.
Meanwhile, I broke back into my acrylic paints and am enjoying the different kind of marks and effects I can make with them. Also remembering that they tend to take more time, and call for more revisiting than the ink and crayon sketches I did last month!
