Sunset and Artist's Block

I've been absent. I haven't wanted to be, but I've been struggling with a bout of artist's block that's left me down and frustrated. In an effort to try to break through this block, I decided to try something new that would hopefully get me excited and get me back to work. After checking out a few options, I settled on oil and cold wax. Cold wax is really just a medium that you mix with the oil paints to get different effects such as texture and it also helps with blending and drying time. I tried it yesterday for the first time, and after wiping my panel off once, I had something that I was somewhat pleased with. As usual, I uploaded a photo of it to Instagram and then my business page on Facebook. Once it was shared on my business page, it sold within moments. I think this just might be the kick in the pants I needed to get back to work!
