Satchmo at the Cotton Club

Well, It's hard for me to admit, but I think I have over 30 paintings that are either sitting half finished or made mistakes on that I keep telling myself I will finish, well, I'm making a promise to myself, by putting them on my blog in order to help me FINISH them. So for this week I will show you this one, in hopes it will be a catalyst to get it DONE!! I started this about 4 months ago, and just never finished it.. It is the famous wonderful Jazz artist, Louie Armstrong. I need to finish some face work, shading on his white shirt and kerchief, and then the doors of the club. So here is my attempt to PUSH me forward.. Any comments or suggestions on title appreciated..

I hope that posting it here gives you the incentive to complete it. You're off to a great start. I'll be looking to see it finished. Don't keep us waiting to long.

Hi Lori, thankyou for commenting on one of my blogs. I wanted to ask an artist, did you have much time to spend on art making when you your children were babies? I just want to know how much free time I can expect to have to do some art...

You website looks great! There is a small error on the contact page. I just thought I'd let you know because I would like to know of any errors on my page.

Lori,
I love your art work. I hope that I can bother you enough times to get you to finish your paintings. My hubby is famous for not finishing his art. :)
