I’ve finished the painting of R.L. Burnside today, except for the last coats of varnish. It’s easier to photograph with this matte finish than it is with the gloss. This is a terrible shot, but I don’t have enough light to work with. It’s enough to tell what’s going on in the painting, anyway. I’m happier with this version, so far. I don’t think I’ll bother destroying it again if I start to hate it again. When I get better photos I’ll post them.
