What a month!

My dad passed away in February. So, I’ve been away from home, down in Florida, getting things squared away there. They’re not squared away – in fact, I’d say they feel pretty misshapen and all over the place. They’re… fractalized?

In any case, although I brought pencils with me, and acrylic pens, it was hard to do anything creative while I was gone. It was a lot of get up, go to my dad’s house, clean/pack/sort, go back to the airbnb, sleep, do it all over again. We did get away for half a day to the beach, at least.

So, here’s a work in progress – I’m not sure where I’m going with it, so how it turns out will be a mystery for all of us.

streaks of ochre and blue and green swirl around, looking like the end of a curl of hair, maybe, or a strange looking wave. No definitive direction to the painting, yet, but there is a feeling of movement and of grittiness to it.

And, one of these days, I’m going to get better at taking photos of my work.
