Made it to day 18...

Actually painted this yesterday together with Day 17... Still with the blocks and palette knife.  Had a hard time with the foreshortened view of the block.   Tried to keep in mind blocks of color and not that it was a block.... Didn't photograph well... end of day.... blue is much more greenish grey.

Today's painting session was for me very therapeutic... started late... had lots on my mind but when I started painting it seemed as if I was in a space of my own.... don't know if the work shows this... that is not important... felt more in control of the knife.... white came our much to glaring ... all in all these blocks have been a good exercise. I like the orange color better than day 16!!!

Today I thought I would choose a simpler subject... how wrong can you be...simple sometimes is more difficult... but I will continue this trend in hopes that the next will come out better... these are supposed to be giant Lego blocks..
