Back in late September I had a heart attack. I wouldn’t recommend it. Since then I’ve been working hard at Cardio Rehab. Almost done. I haven’t been able to paint much. I tried doing Peter’s workshop back in January. I had to cut it short.
I’m loosing some weight and had gotten my sugar under control. I’ve lost connection with people and my woek. The joys of getting old I guess.
I am starting on a piece started back last June-ish. Our model Cathering showed up for about a month. I can’t tell you how much fun it was to paint in Johan’s studio again. The wonderful natural light! We started 2 paintings then she disappeared to Burning Man.
I took the small painted sketch, scanned it up and printed it on canvas. I’ve done this in the past and it works great..
The print is stapled to a heavy foam core. I started a little bit last week. The photo of the pose is on the right. I shocked myself with how well I grabbed the pose in just an hour and a half.
We hadn’t painted together since March of 2020. I hadn’t painted since early summer of 2024. And before that spring of 2023 after conking myself into a concussion.
I’ll keep you pasted
