Slow Painting

I guess there's two ways to look at slow painting.  The first could be about my progress on the acrylic still life where I'm still back at day one.  The underpainting.  The missed spots around the objects are there so that I can see the composition.  The next step will be to add colour beginning at the focal point.

Another type of slow painting is when the actual brush strokes are slow.  Or slower than my usual.  Jab jab jab.  In the last few days I've been trying to paint slow.  I really like it.  Putting paint on the paper feels like a meditation.  And for me, when I can manage to slow down, feelings come up.
