Continuing with my oil painting practice, I finished this small piece yesterday, inspired by a photo I took. I resisted and doubted the process at first, but the more I pushed through, the more I enjoyed it. Although it didn’t turn out exactly as I envisioned, I’m happy with the result.

This painting also sparked an idea I’ve had for a while—to create a series of oil paintings based on photos I take around the Richmond District. I think I’m finally ready to start it. So stay tuned—oil painting number two is coming soon!
