Lazy Boy 2014-W49

It's true that lately I've been thinking about replacing a piece of furniture in my living room with a La-Z-Boy type recliner, but I think my title was more a commentary on how I've become lax with posting my blog. Chiefly because I haven't been painting as I should. Partly busy, partly lazy. So as 2014 dwindles down, I will plan to redouble my efforts in the New Year.

In this and prior year's resolutions, I recall also having mentioned exploring abstract painting and although I don't think today's painting exactly qualifies, it is at least a nod in that direction. And it most definitely was an abstraction since there was no underdrawing... I just painted as I went. So it won't win any prizes for composition but the color is nice and in any case it's much better than a big sheet of nothing.

Hope your holiday season is off on the good foot, that you're on top of your errands and scored some good bargains. Please take a moment tomorrow to remember Pearl Harbor day and the many Americans who gave their lives in serve to our country. Peace.
