I am about 15 minutes into a painting that I was asked to create in 2 1/2 hours that was going to be auctioned off at the end of a meeting to celebrate the signing of an agreement between National Geographic and the Frontenac Arch Biosphere (see www.fabr.ca for details) The adrenaline is pumping and I can barely control the brush. I decide to just "let it happen" and hope for the best. Have a look at the following pictures to see where I got to.
