DECIDING ON A THEME










coming up with ideas is not easy. some days i love to paint nudes and other days i love to concentrate on the human expression. i normally start off with a certain thought in my mind and start to draw very simple lines to begin with. as i draw the lines i let my imagination just flow and develop the painting as it comes along.there are many times when i draw... that the drawing just does not appeal to me and gets trashed into the bin.
and then there are certain drawings i begin with and just stare at them for a while and continue to add lines to the formation. i feel a certain movement going on and keep developing the painting.
because i am a gallery owner it gives me great satisfaction to understand what sells really well.  i have to create certain themes more often than i'd like to ... but honestly, it pays the electric bills!
