Unfinished Business
At the art show tonight, Steve told us that when he looked over his paintings to see what he could enter, he discovered that he has a lot of unfinished paintings.
I know that when I don't finish an ink drawing and come back to it much later, I have lost the drive to do it. I seldom finish an ink drawing that I have let go for over a month. I asked Steve if he would be able to finish any of these paintings.
He considered this and then said that probably he could finish most of them. He said that what he does is line them up and look them over carefully to see which one will beckon to him, calling, "Work on me!" And that's how he chooses when he decides to finish a painting. But lately, they must have all been silent.
