Detail of reflection from The Circle Is Unbroken, oil painting.

Here’s some of the brushwork from ‘The Circle Is Unbroken’, my current oil painting from the Medea series. I want to keep ther crimson and gestural brushwork. It’s knowing what to retain and what to rework or bring forward. I think about painting a lot of the time. Painting doesn’t just happen when you’re physically making the marks ,but when you’re on a walk or in the shower… It’s always with you until you know instinctivley when to stop.
