Time for a Re-work


I think making art is more like a dance than a race. It's not usually a direct, fast route between two points, it's more like a walz, around and around. And I've dancing around with this piece:
Reconstructed the tub (from the backside, that'll mess with your head if you're fusing - screwed the fusible side up several times). Looked at submarine photos, and the sub kept growing in size and complexity. Then looked at the most famous sub of all and went back to my very first sub drawing. Changed the color of the water, which changed the color of the sub. Went shopping for more pinks, and remade PaMdora in a lighter pink. And not necessarily in that order.

And here's one reason it's so fun to see pics of work in progress. I thought the first Pamdora in the bathtub pic looked really good. But now I see this version and think "yes! so much better!!".
I love your "reducing clock". :-)
This is a great idea. I am often reduced to painting and repainting. Photos of works in progress? Now it all seems so obvious...
And I agree with debr. I guess the method works!
I like the part about shopping for more fabric!

I like the color change--not to mention that it's hilarious!
