As you said, Rob, it is all about the next painting.
But isn't the awkwardness its own best teaching tool? Sometimes in an open studio, you get stuck in a certain place and you make the best of it. Just reading your description of what you went through to deal with the problem of the tangential edges of nose and cheek is the kind of challenging learning experience we go through that teaches us (or reminds us) exactly why we don't want to do that in a set-up over which we have more control. This kind of studio work is more spontaneous and has its limitations, and that's the beauty of it.
