What looks like an easy subject matter to paint isn't necessarily so. I thought this little guy would be a cinch to paint but I really struggled over keeping it simple. When a critter has fur and whiskers, my natural tendency is to paint them. I think I took more paint off the board than I put on it.
I'm listening to NPR as I write this - specifically to Garrison Keillor's Writer's Almanac. He commented on an author who said he "spent all morning putting in a comma and all afternoon removing it". I know how the author feels!
