Day 6

A quick portrait of Gateway Teasel, one of the ewes I raised as a lamb. Her mother was Pepper, a huge black ewe with an incredible spinning fleece. I enjoyed working on the piece and it flowed easily off my brush. Its a 4" by 4.5 in oil painting. Speaking of flowing. I am inspired by artist, Kimberly Santini and her process of choosing a word for the year. I thought a lot about this and decided the "Flow" will be my word. I get stuck too easily for a variety of reasons. I am going to focus on flow...flowing through the process this year. I am hoping it can get me past my tendency to become too introspective and then stop the process.
