This very simple composition inspired by the Amalfi coast was coming along quite nicely, until I wiped my hand across it to remove some detritus from the eraser that I had used on some pencil marks, completely forgetting that part of the painting was still wet. I usually work on at least three paintings at a time, allowing two to dry while I work on the third. This time I was just working on one, and of course...
I still like it a lot, and I will finish it, but I can't exhibit it or put it out there to be sold knowing that I have "messed up". I guess I have just painted a picture for my own kitchen!
I'll do a repaint eventually, but today wasn't the day for it.
Today I am grateful for paint and paper.
