#80 4/11/19 The Second (and maybe last) Key West House

Ugggh.  These Key West Houses, which looked so interesting in person, aren't looking so interesting in my portrait renditions.  The experience of painting them feels identical to what I felt painting the first two (and maybe last two) fancy china tea cups: tortured.  It has left me feeling unworthy of holding a paint brush at all.  Though, when I look at my finished and varnished tea cup paintings, they look OK.  Perhaps I'll look at these two Key West Houses that I've done a few months from now and think, "they're not as bad as I remember thinking they were."  Nahhh, they're bad.
