I seriously need to stop doing paintings with long, straight, skinny lines. It’s not good for my stress level and mental health. Regardless, since I had all those photos from the bicycle shop that I took for the bike brake painting that someone commissioned, I thought I’d whip out another a painting based on those photos. Sure, no problem. Straight lines? I laugh in the face of straight lines…and then I cry myself to sleep, knowing full well that I brought this pain upon myself.
