week 2 check in.

Richard and I chatted for 2 hours, below is a list of what we concluded:

*Make as much as possible without worrying about why or wherefores
*Work in a comfortable scale.
*Don't force anything. Do what comes naturally, a foundation to build on will occur pretty soon.
*Work with a drawing reference, but also in tandem work without a starting point. Use just the medium, and let it tell you what is going where.
*Go further... i.e. bring it all together with a heavy glaze so it becomes totally unified and only has a hint off whats underneath...may scratch into it while the glaze is wet or mask random areas to leave parts uncovered. The glaze could be spayed or watered down paint or dust or whatever ...pigment or pastel
*The new goal is, start one every day, and work on each one a little bit every day. Build up lots of layers over time, don't worry about finish dates. Scratch that old schedule.
*This week do 5 small things a day only allow 30mins on each.
