3/4

or
2 steps forward, 1 step back

a painting that i thought was finished
(for the 2nd time, it had already been shown once in its former incarnation)
is...
well...
not!!!

and it's a bit questionable where i have gone with it. that's why this part of the process is so hard;
trying to finish: you can totally end up at the beginning.

things to be grateful for:
i've raising the benchmark for what i consider done
having the confidence to destroy it if it doesn't sing
