"I never want projects to be finished; I have always believed in unfinished work. I got that from Schubert, you know, the 'Unfinished Symphony."  ~Yoko Ono

There is something about unfinished paintings that want to be left alone, perhaps the viewer has the right to complete the work with their imagination.  
I am working with acrylics, using the amazing water-based Americana® Decor™ Chalky Finish paint.

• This paint was originally designed for home decor; to refurbish flea market finds etc. but I discovered it works wonders with mix media.
  

• I have painted directly on wood and canvas using think layers which dry fast enough to build textures with paper and fibers.

For now, I want to share a series of small paintings in progress.

Just for today, do not anger
Do not worry and be filled with gratitude
Devote yourself to your work. Be kind to people.
Every morning and evening, join your hands in prayer of thankfulness
Pray these words to your heart
and chant these words with your mouth
(Usui Reiki Treatment for the improvement of body and mind)
