8x8"
Oil

DPW $102

     Another effort at simplifying the shapes. I found that the parts that I worked on least are the parts that are the best. 
     "Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify, simplify!" Thoreau's principle is a good one to live by and a good one to paint by. I can fritter away the vitality of an image by detail and overworking. I should put the quotation on a banner and hang it on my easel.
