Day 110 of year 3

It was really tough to get the colors right in tonight's photo. It's close, but this is one of those prints that doesn't fully translate to digital. If you come to the SOMA Studio Tour: Outdoors Edition next weekend you'll get a chance to see the real color in person. I put the newest few months of prints into portfolio today for that event. I always find it so interesting how much my opinion of my prints changes. Almost without fail when I look at the prints I didn't like I think. "Hmm that's not so bad after all.. i actually like this!" And, it often happens that the ones I really liked fall flat. This is further evidence and support to my belief that artists should not judge their work as they are making. Let it flow and let the world do the judging. Of course as a human, it's nearly impossible not to judge but I don't grasp the judgements. I observe them, let them bounce by, and keep on working.
