Getting into Beale Street again



Detail of Beale Street painting

I can't tell you how great it was last night to dig into the Beale Street painting again. After a few weeks away from the oil painting, I was back at it and looking forward to hopfully finishing this painting by middle of next week. We will see how it actually goes though. I also will be working on some entry pieces of art for a benefit for the Children's Defense Fund of Minnesota. So other than that, it will be a busy couple of days here and am looking forward to the upcoming weekend to get some other tasks done as well.

It looks awesome, Shawn! I really like how free and expressive your brush strokes are.

Thanks Janet. I am hoping that I can keep the energy going throught the piece.

Hi Cynthia. Thanks for the compliments. Now it is just a matter of keeping everything free and expressive to the end. It should be interesting to see what happens.
