I have spent this morning doing some (payed) werk, and also catching up on a few emails and things. It is now 10.43am and I will go and make a cup of tea and head on out to the studio...
It is now 10.53am and I am still on this infernal computer. I really, honestly, am going now.
First task: I paint in some sky and find a vintage tube of Oxide of Chromium to give to the trees
Post-lunch: Another fun-filled time painting and pouring on "rock face" number 2.
Later: I was merrily werking away, intending to bring the neon glow on the secret date plaque back to a whiter shade (it's looking decidedly yellow). But too much paint, and we're losing the background. I blend it out good and hard. Still no joy. Emergency procedures: flood a load of white spirit down the surface.
And then I have to go and fuck it up completely. I was rubbing it back, but the white has spread everywhere, the background is getting lost under a haze of white, which is growing and growing. fuckfuckfuck.
Looks like we're back to scratch. I add some green and black to get rid of the white, but I have a feeling I'll be starting again on this from the ground up next week...
