I leave for europe this week. Going back there for a few weeks. Not sure how to feel 'cause normally i go there to GET inspiration, but this time im riding a pretty solid wave before I leave.

Heres a small peak at what I am working on at the moment...terrible camera phone pic, but you get the idea. large piece, overall about 80" tall

You're right I'm not....

It had been awhile since I painted. Maybe a couple months. I had stretched this larger canvas, 80"x60" or something like that, but not painted on it. It kept sitting in my studio, starring at me. Taunting me. For weeks it was there..

Seven feet tall
six feet wide
its stark,
white,
blank surface
starring into my eyes.

I ask the canvas
"Why?
How come this problem
was never had by
Picasso.
He painted
everyday.
I haven't been able
for months. Why
is this so?"

A simple reply
"you
aren't Picasso..."
