Lucky me!

A couple a nights ago I layed awake
thinking of how difficult the portraitpainting was
at the moment...

I have found that just as easy
as it feels starting painting a portrait,
just as difficult it appears toards the end...
Everything should in the end
just feel confortable and right to look at.

What is lacking?
What is wrong?
How do I take it from almoust ready
(atleast all the canvas filled) to being ready?

The answer I have found is; work. Concentrate. Move on.
And relay in that I will make it.

After painting today I felt relaxed and fine!

This portrait should be
framed and delivered
by June 19th.

Amazing! To be able to manage this certain "point" where you feel content with everything is so difficult.
The inner critic can be so noisy, especially if you show it to the "model" afterwards.
Lucky you...indeed!
Have a lovely weekend dear...I'll mail you soon!
