Flatrock
14 x 21
watercolour
And there's commissions that I'm working on as well. And day to day life and work. So I'm up at 5:30 fitting in a little painting and doing more in the evening. I haven't touched housework and laundry's piling up. This weekend I will tackle the house for a few hours and get that under control.
Am I the only one who does this? I mean work in spurts at this frantic pace then collapse in a heap when its complete? Instead of things slowing down, they seem to be speeding up - or I'm getting older and it just seems that way.
So while I work away on some paintings, here's an update on one that I was working on this winter. Its the amazing rocks of Flatrock that I started in watercolour. I picked it up again the other day, needing a change of scene, and added some more washes to it. Its about 90% complete now. A few more details and its on its own in the world.

Hi Jeanette. Speaking as a geology-loving watercolourist this is a heavenly painting! Yes, I empathise with you. Work does seem to come in fits and starts and then expands to fit all the time available too :)
If you like rocks Michael, this is the place to be. The geology of the place is rich in history and unique rock formations. We also have a place called Mistaken Point that has the oldest fossils in the world.
It's good to be this busy with your artwork - the housework will wait (that's what I tell myself! ha ha). Take care - do get some quiet time to relax and keep on creating :)
You always amaze me with the amount you accomplish with only 24 hrs in a day. This eve, I've loved going through your work for the last 3 weeks and seeing the diversity of your work & how much there is, but please, as RH said, take some time to relax.
Thanks for the update. It's looking quite lovely. Can't wait to see it finished.
