I decided to try a muted wash and hated the result. The colors were much duller than I had anticipated, a far departure from my usual bright, uplifting theme.\u00a0I wanted to throw the project away and start over, but a little voice in my head stopped me cold.<\/p>

“Are you sure? All paintings have an ugly stage.”<\/p>

This, in fact, is true. Maybe my struggle was not so much about the wash as about the unknown. This wash had a completely different feel, and I didn’t know how to handle it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

So I left the painting for a few days, returning at intervals to study its dark, subdued colors. At the end of the week, I still had not found any answers in the paint or in my persistent stares. Still, I wasn’t ready to give up.<\/p>

Instead, I took a needed break, traveling with my husband to one of my favorite places, Dawes Arboretum. After our hike, we completed our visit with a drive through the park to enjoy the fall colors.\u00a0<\/p>

My husband saw it first, a single tree, blanch white, standing tall against a backdrop of darker trees and fading colors. A few colorful leaves remained on the tree’s twisting branches. I knew immediately that the tree belonged in the painting. Several days later, I completed “Echoes of Autumn.”\u00a0<\/p>

What did I learn from this experience? Perhaps the subdued colors were just what the background needed to pop a more colorful landscape. Maybe the “ugly” wash just needed a different pair of eyes.\u00a0<\/p>

But most of all, I learned not to give up on what might initially appear hopeless. You never know what tomorrow might bring.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
