My new tumblr

I created a tumblr to reblog Instagram photos since my instagram is private.

Sometimes I wonder if I am working too much on some paintings I am doing. Maybe I should learn when to stop. I have tried this on a recent painting of Willard Beach. I decided to leave the water basic instead of water effects, after admiring some paintings of Milton Avery. However, sometimes I think I am somewhat influenced by the opinions of others, and if someone said I should paint water effects I probably would. Perhaps I would like it either way. Sometimes I think “I’ve paid this money for this surface I better put some real time into it.” But if the picture looks better with less time then why do it?
