I realized that I needed to be more structured when I come into my studio to work on paintings. It is important to me to continue having discipline when I'm working.
For now shifts in value, temp., and intensity are what I'm focusing on, with a purposeful attention to having a focal point.
I see a difference from one set of paintings to the new body of landscapes I'm currently working on with these few elements of art taking a front spot in the drivers seat.
