not a discipline thing, it's laziness that got out of hand. phthalo blue, titanium white, a cad red i've been nursing since march, that yellow ochre, burnt umber, black, and a green i mixed once and never fully cleaned off the glass. that's it. it's a gross little green too. i keep meaning to scrape it.

the annoying part is the work's gotten better. like i stopped reaching for the new tube and the paintings got tighter. i don't know if that's a real thing or if i just got good at making one painting over and over and calling it a series.

also my water cup has a skin on it. i know. it's been sitting since tuesday because i told myself i'd come back after lunch and then i didn't come back until today.

anyway if you have a color you've been avoiding because you "don't like it" that's probably the one.
