it actually is a very playfull piece, with no ambitions according to scale or any kind of imaging the reality - nevertheless it contains enough visible information to recognize it as a map, displaying places of a special interest and therefore I say:

keep it that way.


There are no doubts according to the composition.

Share your kindness, not your hate.
Love the art, before yourself.

I think I feel that way about everything I've created, but I just decide I'm tired of working on it so it becomes 'finished'.

But I really like this and I love the colors you used, and I say you should keep it the way it is.

Thank you! I really appreciate it. And I agree on the composition - it has been set in stone for weeks and unwilling to let me change it.
:iconartjoe:
Thanks! You are channeling my own working method. Finished maybe just means too tired to continue and ready to start something different. :)

I think it looks finished. I love all of the colors and the playfulness of it. :aww:

Yes, definitely haha. I'm really liking your work! I think you should paint an entire room like this. That would be cool, and you could make the ceiling the sky haha.

it certainly is the hardest thing about painting deciding when it is finished.its like having to move away from the intimate relation ship that you have made with the painting and begin to think about what the wider world will think of it.

it is such a head fuck for me that i half paint paintings until i have about five or six on the go then come back and finish them all with a fresh perspective.I have half finished paintings all over the house and each one whispers the answer to me over time.

in answer to your question.....FINISHED
:iconartjoe:
:D You are spot on. 5-6 half painted pictures - we must live in the same house. :) Mine need to start whispering louder! I'm thinking I should set myself up a clock..like a chess clock..and when the time runs out a work is done.

Thankyou, oil paint can be so wonderfully vivid sometimes, so much fun to work with.
