do i keep going or start over?

i admit it

i'm overthinking this one

and

i'm starting to drive myself 

crazy

this is what it looks like now

this is how it started

 detail of pencil sketch

starting to paint

after having an emergency 

phone call with my dear karen

i have decided not to gesso over it

i will finish it!

as i paint, 

i will repeat:

just keep going

just keep going

just keep going
