Finally Finished "Pegasus Spiral"
I've been working on the painting shown here for months. Not continuously, obviously, but on and off for a great many hours. I believe I've painted the entire thing twice and certain parts four or five times. There's just a compulsion to get the piece exactly as I want it, and I don't always know what I want until I start working on it. I've included a photo from an earlier stage for you to see some of the evolution this has gone through. I knew generally what I was trying for at the beginnnig, but it took lots of effort to free the final image from my imagination and onto the canvas. I hope you like it.
PEGASUS SPIRAL
Acrylics, 30 x 30 inches
Here's a shot of it at a much earlier stage. The concept was there from the start, but I totally changed the wings and the spiral pieces. Also redid the horse more than once -- I had already painted over another horse at this stage.
I've got a couple more paintings close to finished as well. I'm feeling very productive, art-wise, these days.
