Every painting has been a fight between the painting and me.
I tend to win.
But you know how many paintings I threw in the garbage?
Carmen Herrera
Artist
Born 1915
In preparation for my next solo show opening April 2023
(all koi paintings this go-round)
I’ve had a lot of wins – paintings that I like and love.
While a few that did not make my heart sing
were summarily tossed.
You said it best Carmen Herrera.
That’s what the creative process is all about.
Achieve the highest of standards before putting it out into the world.
