Fog
My intention today was to work some more on yesterday's panel.
But several correspondents told me not to touch it. After pondering that idea, I decided to make another panel, of the same non-existent place, and to paint it in the manner of a recent favorite.
But, as Carl Sandburg wrote, "the fog comes on little cat feet."
Soon I heard the protracted, anguished moan of the foghorn at Rawson's Point, calling warnings to those upon the sea. In what seemed like just a second, it was upon me, everything sheathed in gray.
You can imagine the situation in my studio. Aside from anything else, I couldn't even see my coffee cup---a dire turn of events.
This is where I stopped.
So now I still have to tackle the one from yesterday, again.
