Another ballet painting! I have been timing myself to paint only 30 minutes per painting today. I worked on four different ballet paintings, and found it to be quite effective. Why? not sure, maybe it was because I felt the need to get the important things down first, and not be, couldn't be concerned with any detail at all. I'm going to do this exercise more often. I am quite happy with the results. Whe I spend more time on a painting, I begin getting "picky" and it begins to feel tight and contrived, everything opposite as to what I am trying to convey. These ballet paintings are meant to be light and airy. This painting is 9 by 12 oil on canvas panel, please visit my website at http://www.janicewarriner.com/
