I think I'll have one cup while writing this, as a reward and a reference. I have to look at the steam. I changed it here so it will be only white, the liquid black as before and everything else will be in color. I wanted to say something about the process. Where is the value in making mistakes and correcting them in the process, having to do things over and over again vs making a clean sketch, then step by step march towards a finished work, or perhaps just press a button and be done with it. I don't think any of those are wrong, but they produce different results. I value the experience and I enjoy it. I have time to fall in love with the drawing, then hate it on some days, give it another shot and then one day abandon it for another. (just the working on it part, but it can be very sad) Some mistakes stay partly in the completed image and contribute to the whole, while others have contributed to it without visible trace much like dark matter. All that processing contributed to my being also, but let's focus on the artwork. What does the process contribute to the viewer, who possibly does not know what has happened until they see the art? They can see some of the traces perhaps and sense that there is a history in the artwork, that is a product of choices, and that there is a history in the person who made it (if it indeed was a person), and that there are similar experiences we have shared or perhaps some that are impacting us through other people without us knowing. We are very sensitive beings after all. I'm running late, so i'll just leave it there and perhaps continue later. There is still lot to work on with this one.
