Scanning, varnishing, framing, naming day
Added 2023-04-30 23:35:02 +0000 UTCTo be read in the voice of Ray Liota toward the end of Goodfellas. This is how it always goes. itโs time to show my new work, but first I have to put them in frames, or install wires on them. But before that I have to varnish them. but I canโt varnish them until after I scan them. So I get out the scanner, and start scanning and then I realize I didnโt sign them, so I get the paint and the brushes and I start signing them and then I start adjusting the painting for an hour. then I scan them. Then I add the isolation coat and while I wait for that to dry so that I can add the varnish, I realize that half of these paintings donโt have names. So I look at my notebook and see if Iโve written anything down that jumps out at me. Some yeah. Some nothing. So I start free associating on the ones with nothing and go to thesaurus dot com and maybe thumb through a book and try and put words to the paintings so that I can call them something after theyโve been varnished and framed.
