back among the primers
Six new big panels near completion: 1800mm x 1220mm [or 6 x 4 of the old numbers]. And, physical paradox notwithstanding: they make less space in the studio. Where am I going to put them all?
As the five coats of primer lay up on the panels they get whiter and whiter, more and more daunting. The touch me if you dare, pristine white stare. But, by the cunning introduction of not rubbing down between coats, some texture is building up on the surface.
What it is to have six big panels waiting. To have this potential stacked up around the studio. It’s not like the white paper before a classic novel; I have built these panels, I have already invested time and me into them. The paintings are already on the way. Unstoppable, unstuckable.
