I started the new week off with the same goal in mind to do something everyday. With the heat continuing at a blistering 35 degrees Celsius, it made it very hard to work. In a rush to get something on paper and done I ended up scraping most starts. In my haste I did not follow composition rules which makes the whole piece not worth while if the basic foundation is flawed. So when you keep adding more and more color in hopes of it miraculously working itself out of the "ugly" stage, it only leaves you with the question of "what's wrong with this picture". I'm sure there are many like that but some can be salvaged more than others.

This is a block in for the picture at the right. Again the photo does not do this justice. There is a deeper color relationship when viewing in real time. Out of curiosity I wanted to see why this turned out so different than anything else I have experimented with. Basically when you turn the picture into black and white there is really only 3 value changes even though there are numerous color additions.

Well, then it just gets nastier as the week progressed. Here is hoping this week will culminate in something useful.
