Artists who are "going to paint a picture" are like writers who are "going to write a book"

Hit the canvas and go for it, all painting can be altered and changed as you go, this is observed in many of the great masterpieces, that underneath there are many layers and changes, before they were happy with the finished result, if that can really be possible to 'finish'!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
