Sometimes it just takes patience with a painting that doesn't seem to be going anywhere. I started it over 3 years ago and dropped it like a hot potato and put it in the back of the studio.
While cleaning up and I have been doing more of that than painting lately, I came across this little guy and pulled it out. Later, while discussing the conclusion of a bigger painting with a client, he spotted it sitting around and asked me if he could buy it. I told him it wasn't finished and he said he would buy it when it was, so here it is now finished. I may do a bigger one in the new year. I wanted to finish it with some pouring medium to give it that glass like effect, but realized that I am almost out of pouring medium, so I finished it with a triple thick varnish instead. I will have to wait for some specials at the art store when the gallons go on special for some more pouring medium.
