@farmerman,
Right now I am procrastinating about a number of (abstract) paintings I have been working on (not to mention a number of blank/gessoed canvases). My clearest movtive for this hestitation seems to be a fear of not taking the
greatest advantage (a kind of greed) of what I have on the canvases already. I hate it when works take on a preciousness that paralyzes me. But eventually--almost inevitably--I will become willing to sacrifice what I've got for something else. A sense of adventure will come to the fore. Let's hope so for these works.
