I was back at the same spot for the third time.  The weather was different than it was the last two sittings.  However, I only needed to borrow a few elements to finish the painting.  The yellow building seems a bit void so I added two different windows.  After a few hours of working, I was pretty happy with the result.

Sometimes, you are working on your painting and your work is going in an unfamiliar territory.  You don’t know what to do next.  That has happened to me a few times.  I usually stop and then look for more inspiration or look at other artists that could shed some light.

The painting below looked a bit different than my other work.  I really enjoyed the open space and raw lines for the spiral staircase, yet I was stuck.  I began this painting at least 5 months ago.  I brought it  along with me again,  eliminated a lot of surface work and removed repeated lines and shapes.  After few hours of working, I feel stuck again.  May be the third time will be the charm!
