I’ve begun the last painting for my forthcoming exhibition. There are just a couple of days to bring it to completion if I’m to deliver it to the gallery on Saturday ready to be hung next week. Luckily I have a frame ready for it. It’s based on this chiaroscuro Hervé and the Wolf study made a couple of months ago.

Below is the painting at the end of the first day on the easel . Quite a way to go to pull this one together in a very short time. Tomorrow had better be a good day!

Clive Hicks-Jenkins' Artlog: 
the day before yesterday I received the invitation for your exhibition Clive. It must be a hectic but good feeling, being almost ready now. And again….I wish I would live more nearby, though I am free that weekend. Anyway, good luck finishing it all and thanks for giving those daily looks into your kitchen of art.
Mathijs, the ‘kitchen of art’ is a steaming cauldron right now! The chef is cooking! (-;
Clive in full tilt mode! Luck!
wow! it already looks magical! i can’t believe you have gotten that much done already…
Marly, Zoe, thank you. We’ll see where today takes it.
