When I can't paint, I think about painting. I look at books of Waterhouse, Bouguereau, Baroque painters.... just to keep the ideas flowing.
The past few weeks, my studio has been a cooler, about 50 degrees, and well, my models just wouldn't have it. Neither would I!
Painting isn't just a brush to canvas, the way I look at it, it's the activity of viewing life as a set of compositions and painterly problems.
There's always something productive to be had...
