Every painting that has been posted on this blog in the last month is a work in progress.  As I continually rework and make changes to these paintings, it seems like there is an energy building.  I am thinking about the reworked paintings as containing a potential energy.  All of the underpaintings contributing to this stored energy that is making the painting on the surface, the one the is visible to the eye have a strange pulse.

some reworked paintings. lately I have been enjoying the medium of paint more and more, the physical qualities and the ability for brushstrokes and paint to make a "painting".  revisions and restarting, completely painting over paintings that some would consider finished, is now part of the working process.  a new painting happens so easily and the figure changes it's personality, story.  until the time when it is time to stop.

not yet titled, new work
