Studio, May

There's nothing like that new canvas smell. At the moment I have five new canvases, stretched, gessoed, and ready to go... the biggest problem right now is determining which of the twenty-some images in my head should go on these five... I'm going to need more stretchers.

Also, here's a new little color study I sketched out this week. The color of cardboard is elusive and satisfying to recreate.

Space... the final frontier...

So long, grad school. And so begins life as a professional artist.
