Takes Me To Another Place.

When I take on a commission painting it is usually a different type of adventure. I suppose because it's really someone else's painting full of their ideas that I translate. For instance, using colors combinations I would otherwise have not chosen, and details and objects that are only personal to them. I love that. I always learn something new about myself as well. Many times I never meet my clients in person, so I have an image in my head of what they look like, what type of person they are while I am painting. Even choosing the right music to listen to while I am working can certainly affects things.

I am half way through such a commission right now. I better get back to work...................
