I hate this time between paintings (even if it is brief)

I’m at a dangerous time… It’s that time for me between paintings.

This is the time when the evil exiled King of Procrastination tries to reclaim his throne! Curse that evil king! I sent him to exile and I don’t want him back!

It’s not my favourite time because it’s when I am most likely to lose focus. To draw another parallel… It’s a time where I am at my weakest… Like Superman, with Kryptonite in the next room… I can feel its presence draining me.

So what is the solution? : I need to get into the next painting as soon as I can!

I’m going to underpaint my next canvas now. The smell of open oil tubes should halt the prospect of stalling!

Right… into it!
