A painting called “Eagle Trail” wasn’t sitting right with me. I look at it each time I set up a show or rehang paintings in the studio, and something was just not good enough.
I don’t know what is bothering me.
So, I just began with the upper-most, furthest away parts. As I was taught in one of the classes that I began but dropped part way through (rap music? really?? Couldn’t take it!), the “glazing” method is just repainting, over and over and over.

It is a little glossy because it is wet. I’ll keep layering and layering, studying, thinking, trying to paint it more carefully and accurately. When it is dry, it should photograph better. I hope it looks better!
