the real "Day 12", 8/10/13

I spent my entire day at Artworks.  Most of the day was spent working on a collaborative project by myself... Yeah... no one showed for this free, open to the public, no skill required, fun, community building, artistic entertainment.  As you may guess, I was a bit annoyed when I returned home only to turn around and man the membership table during the AbOmInOg opening.  I really didn't think I was going to have energy, motivation, or time to paint and post today but I skipped the post-opening party and went home to start painting at 9pm.  

Though I was tired and should have stuck kachina somewhere simple, I decided to stick it on the windowsill looking through to another window and into another room.  I gave myself glass over glass and a number of layers of linear elements to deal with before kachina ever got touched.  I feel like this composition was a challenge on a challenge on a challenge!  I am sad to post this photograph.  The photograph does not come close to representing this image accurately.  I *really* like this painting, and I rarely LIKE anything I do.  So, stop by, see "Day 12" and tell me what you think!
