Wednesday's work...
After a morning's fiddling about with something and nothing in particular, I decided to tackle the first marks on this...

Tuesday supplement...
... finally made a start laying down the drawing for an idea which has been exercising my brain for a couple of weeks... a more panoramic motif than my camera will normally allow so a composite construction might provide the way...
... charcoal and chalk on canvas at present... and now study time before deciding how to progress it...Saturday, 5 December 2009
Another sunny Saturday stuck indoors...
After a week of inactivity whilst laid up with quite the most horrid virus I've ever encountered... and I won't go into the gory details of why it was made worse by a "physical" condition created by a previous surgical procedure which prevents my body dealing with such viruses in the time-honoured fashion... I have spent a little while this morning in the studio trying to catch up with work I had intended to spend time dealing with during the past week...
I have pushed this further towards resolution but the slow-drying blue [liberally knifed onto the canvas] means another period of waiting before any more marks can be considered...

... and this one, begun last Saturday, is still in the state it had reached when I was struck down by the dread virus and rendered incapable of standing up straight...

... someone whose opinion I greatly respect has insisted that I do no more work to it and, at this stage, I am inclined to agree but, as is usually the case, I need to study it at a distance before being convinced that any further marks would be superfluous.
Now fer me dinner...
