It's Cold Outside

Only 15 degrees so I'm down in The Cave finishing one of my more unique paintings. It started as a painting of a cove in Maine in 1977 and then I thought it was good. I was busy with other things then...moving to Colorado and thinking about being a dad in spring of 78. So basically I hurried my paintings. Somehow I never threw this one away and when it surfaced the other day I thought I could make it better. I did and now I like it. Interesting..now I've got a painting that spans the last 30 years, 77-07. Am thinking about spending a little time in the unheated garage today because that's where the belt sander lives. Obviously can't use it inside The Cave but at these temperatures I'm thinking about it??
