This week I haven&#8217;t even wanted to look at them. So today I&#8217;m making myself look at them. I finally took photos and uploaded them to Flickr. It&#8217;s helping. I&#8217;m thinking about directions and it&#8217;s helping. I started these four not having any idea about where they would take me. Now that they are each going along in slightly different paths, I can see what&#8217;s important, what&#8217;s not, what I like, and what I don&#8217;t like. Strangely the one I liked the most in the beginning is the one I like the least now. And the one I thought would never go anywhere is the one I feel is closest to being done. I think the next step is to start one or two more, and to try different things, not worry about destroying them, and try to have some fun.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/angrypirate\/4131201935\/\" title=\"pond by Alanna Risse, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2564\/4131201935_16014c1c74.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"379\" alt=\"pond\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/angrypirate\/4131203073\/\" title=\"river.jpg by Alanna Risse, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2519\/4131203073_d02eea8b9c.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"379\" alt=\"river.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/angrypirate\/4131887256\/\" title=\"haystack by Alanna Risse, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2545\/4131887256_4f69cb53ff.jpg\" width=\"415\" height=\"323\" alt=\"haystack\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/angrypirate\/4131962880\/\" title=\"deer.jpg by Alanna Risse, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2732\/4131962880_26e9662986.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"379\" alt=\"deer.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been taking way too long to finish these 4 paintings.
