And Then There Was One

"And Then There Was One"
Oil on Canvas, 10 x 8," c. Catherine Vines
   
I learned a lot from painting this, but mainly:
No matter how many times you tell yourself, "It's just a ball. I can paint a ball standing on my head!" it's just not true. 
Oh, I can paint the ball. But the wrinkles and dents - that's another story. 
The real education for me is the reminder - once again - that I get stubborn and lost in the details and forget that my goal is not realism.
