So I get home from work today and I see this sitting on a table. I did this Sunday in about an hour. The problem is I did this not this passed Sunday, but the Sunday before, yep the 13th of Jan. I have this really big problem with starting a painting and either not finishing it or taking much longer than I need to. Cryssy gets on to me quite a bit for doing this. I currently have about 3 or 4 started paintings, not including this one, that are screaming for some attention. This is the start of a book cover for a friend of mine, who happens to be a minister. He is very anxious and excited about it. I should probably get it done fairly soon. Maybe this is my calling. Painting for book covers. Who knows. It's not that bad of an idea, is it?Wednesday, January 23, 2008
Unfinished

I think that is a great idea! You would have a deadline which could motivate reach the finish line. Also I could so see you painting things like Harry Potter covers that need lots of imagination.
You know, people who write book really need a different cover to stand out. My book is doing okay because the cover is so loud and 'cutsie' (amazon - books- 'Jackie L Hutton' if you wanna see what I mean.)
Books covers are awesome to get started. I'm behind you.
He's going to love it. I can already tell you.
The painting that you did for my brother of a scene at Arlington cemetary is a treasured piece of our family's. You are a talented fella. I think your minister fella will love it!
I would read the book. :)
