Somehow I neglected to post when I finished working on Woman with a Red Zinnia by Mary Cassatt. I had taken off the rest of the summer, because it was too hot for me to commute back and forth, walking with all my gear from the train. I finally went back on September 14th, so I've dated this blog entry for that day.
I pretty much went over the whole painting, but I ultimately decided not to take it any further. Sometimes I reach the point where I feel that either I'm just too far off, or I've learned enough, or I'm just tired of this one, or all of the above. I turned in my permit and started looking for my next painting to copy.
