Tangerine 6×6

I'm beginning to recognize a recurring theme to my painting process.  I start painting, feel good about the initial monochromatic sketch, have high hopes in the beginning stages of color application, become frustrated and discouraged with the progression of color application, and finally make some desperate gestures with the brush that determine the success or failure of the painting.  In this case the painting was made in those final desperate brush strokes.  The result was that of color being distributed throughout the canvas, unifying the painting.  At least that is how it appears to me.

Thanks for viewing!
