Bukowski Painting- A Rough Start

William Bukowski

Sibley Park

30" X 40"

Oil on Linen

So far I've decided to call this one "a rough start" at least so far.....  I am looking into a full garden with flowers changing and growing every day.  The light changes in minutes, it is hot with the sun shining right in my face.  It is extremely challenging.  Sometimes it is very annoying when this kind of painting is written off as out-dated and old fashioned.  The process is very alive.  It is not as easy as the end results would suggest.

I do feel privileged to be standing in a park staring at little brushstrokes blowing in the breeze. Sometimes the hardest thing is to be patient and let the painting paint itself.
