Painting again

I am delighted with my currently painting set up. Granted it is still in disarray from my move, but my easel is up, paint brushes ready and paint easy to access. I have begun to work again on paintings that I had set aside last fall. It is tremendously fun. I walk into my bedroom and the first thing I see is my painting on my easel. Sometimes I walk in and am not even sure what it was that I was intending to do, but feel the intense need to touch up the painting. Some days I may not paint for very long, but I have always been a burst of energy type painter. I'll paint intensely for an hour and then quit. I also went to the paint store today. It will be nice to have black paint again.

Here is a very bad quality photo of my latest in progress painting. It is far from finished. I love how, aside from the original eye shape, it resembles nothing of my original idea for the painting. I have allowed the painting to move me instead of the other way around. I don't want to force an idea on an image.
