I finally waxed my latest EIGHT paintings. Waxing is not my favorite thing to do so I tend to wait until the last possible moment to do it. It's just such a bitch to get the wax smooth and the larger the painting, the harder it is. I like the look though so for now, I'll just have to suck it up!

| "Walking to Church", 30" x 24" |
I decided not to cover the eyes on this painting and use if for my upcoming series on immigrants, that I have yet to title. I showed it to my dad and he thought the bars would ruin the painting. I don't agree, but he is a bit biased since it's a painting of him and his mom.

| "Swimming Pool", 14" x 11" |
 |
| "Shooting Arrows:, 11" x 14" |
 |
| Untitled (for now), 12" x 12" |
So it turns out, this is a Latina woman so I can feel okay about not covering her eyes and adding her to my immigrant series. I think I made a lot of people happy by doing this.
 |
| "Sitting by the Pool", 20" x 16" |
 |
| "Casual Conversation", 24" x 24" |
 |
| "Woman Holding Child", 10" x 10" |
I'm still undecided about this series. I like it in concept but I don't think my execution is quite there yet. I will try a few more before I decide if I will continue it.

| "Girl Holding Teddy Bear", 10" x 10" |
As you can see, not all of my paintings are always successful. Some of these came out great, others, not so much. I'll let you decide which ones you think worked.
