Finally, after over two months’ worth of work to combine and sync four different artworks into one Vivaldi this project is completely (needs signature) done. As I have said, “Good Riddance.” My Studio is a mess. My mind and the meaning of this art have become confused and a wonderment, and so it is full-steam-ahead, looking for relief in the next great music painting.

I am going back to my standard, and comfortable 30 x 40 works. I have many songs that sing to me, cling to me, stand out to me, that reflect my idea of what is art, and reflect what I am feeling in the moment, that need to become real, hands on, the next big thing, the breakthrough I have been looking for, the one that sells, and the one I can let got, so let’s get back on track headed to nowhere but feeling good.

As for this project, I hate commission work even when I commission it myself. I also love commission work for the challenge and the problem solving that each brings to this art. I am a better artist for the discipline of a commission demands. But since this self-commission work will not bring in any monies to cover my yearly art expenses, it is has basically been an ego thing and a waste of two months. I will probably end up with the same results with my next 30 x 40 project. The reward is that I will be back to where I want to explore in greater depth, and that will mean cheaper in cash spend and time wasted.

Keep on keeping on. What other choice is there? HUM, that is up to me.
