The 30 Year Painting


Previously I mentioned that I decided to take a kind of lousy painting from 1977 and just repaint it so that it at least looked respectable. It was so bad that my ex-wife didn't even want it in the divorce so this was a challenge. Basically I just repainted the whole thing over the heavy texture of the original and it didn't turn out too bad. It's a tidal pool on the coast of Maine...kind of a heavy atmosphere but the composition and patterns intrigued me. Anyway it's better than the original so here it is for what that's worth.
