Ugly paintings

I've started trying to loosen up my painting style. It's normally overworked and tight, and in an effort to defeat this I've been doing some sketches based on old black & white photographs.

Tired, achy, worn down 39 year old will get a flat stomach, chest and arm muscles, a full head of hair, and access to keg parties and tipsy 18 year old college women. More than willing to make this a permanent thing.

If i get my job again, well. There's nothing but the same old weather forecast. Sadly.

And now, *she says reaching for her mat. Yoga! The 40 day challenge continues..
