Impatience...wanting to finish quickly

Whenever I start a new painting...there reaches this point, where, I become impatient and want to see it finished. It's almost like when we were kids and would ripe the wrapping off presents to see what was inside...or the anticipation on xmas morning.

Style Evolution

I've noticed over time, that my style evolves right after I've entered a dry period. Writers experience "Writer's blocks", I experience "Dry Periods". These are periods of time that I want to paint, but just don't have anything to express...or it just seems that way.

When I was younger, I used to think these meant something, like I wasn't really an artist, after all arent'artists always creating? Now I realize that it's just part of the process. Something that happens. For me these dry periods have always resulted in a shift in my painting style.

What I see appearing on the canvas is still expressive, but the style is a different than what I was producing a year ago...and the palette is changing too. I'm excited to find where this one takes me and for how long.
