It occurred to me today that painting is like putting together a puzzle, except you have to create each and every piece. It's tough and SUCH a challenge, but so satisfying when it turns out well - when you step back and realize, yes, all those pieces fit together to look like grapes!
I painted this twice because I got interrupted in the middle of the first one. Does this happen to you? You are in the zone, painting away, when you get a phone call or some other interruption, and by the time you get back to the easel, you have just simply lost your momentum?! You can't remember what the next move was or where you were going with it? Maybe I'm just a delicate flower, but I have a tough time with it. This time though I really liked the composition, so I decided to start over from the beginning. Fortunately I think the second try was even better.
