badgering

I've been worrying about my failure to keep in touch with people I really should be keeping in touch with, and my apparent aptitude for ending a day with nothing much to show for it. So yesterday at least was a good day because I spent nearly all of it painting. And I quite like the way it's going, so this is the work so far. I've pasted (rather crudely) a dark sky from one of my photos into the background, because I wanted to make sure that it would work, before putting real paint on the paper.

Which I'll do today. Onwards and upwards!
