Rain, Rain...

...well, I'm not going to say "go away." We've had such a dry summer things could use a really good soak!



I've been working on a couple of new paintings this week. The one I posted last time of the racehorse standing on the training track is coming along. The next piece I've started is a racing piece. It's my first painting on Artfix Belgian linen. This linen is sooooo smooth it's actually taking some time to learn how to work with it, so I have been struggling a bit! I hope it comes together, because right now it's looking a little troubled! Once the underpainting is done I expect it will get easier, but the underpainting is taking much longer than usual.

Okay....back to work!
