Sometimes when painting you come
to a dead end. In the above painting on the left many variations of tree
and rock were tried but none seemed to give me the effect I was aiming
for. A total change of thought utilising something which would be found
in the bald eagle's habitat has transformed the painting from another
bird on a twig to something a little more impressive (I hope). A purist
would argue that the totem pole should face the lake as it was there
for the prime purpose of welcoming visitors. The face of the earth
mother was much more interesting, and what the heck, I'm an artist, and
I have a licence (artistic licence). It doesn't always work out for me
either, but with a bit of lateral thought you can often find a
solution. Take heart. |
