Another Day Another Dollar

Well I am almost done with “Strength and Glory” Just a couple more decisions to make. First the title, which I think I’ll keep. Next do I want to include the ribbons in the horses hair. I do have them drawn in and I like the height they add to the image. The downside though is I am not sure how they will work with my background coloring. Also they might affect the marketability of the image. I hate to give in to such thoughts but as a working artist who makes a living selling what I produce it realistically has to play a factor.

It is possible I will finish the piece today but more than likely it will be another day or two. I usually like to “live” with a painting for a week or two. I set it aside and just have it out to glance at occasionally. Often this helps me to see the piece with fresh eyes and make minor adjustments. I am on a bit of a deadline with this one though so may not have that luxury.
