a repetative picture



this is a repetative picture now, i think. this is part of wondering why pictures get made and re-made and wait. there is a picture here from a while ago that needs to get remade. usually i have this rule where i am not allowed to paint over pictures from before because they got made for a reason even if they are not very good now and so it is good to look at them and understand why they are not good. but this one doesnt mind. which is quite nice because i can paint over it - but just some of it - which is why it is even worth saying about. the idea came about 2 weeks ago which is why i thought i would write it down so that the idea doesnt go away. once in drawing lessons there was this rule that you had to draw but not change what was already drawn, ie the 'mistakes' you were only allowed to draw on top of, which was nice because you could turn the old stuff into cool (non rules, acceptable and all the rest) stuff and not get into trouble for perspective mistakes (clearly only certain lecturers had this approach, obviously) so this can be like that. maybe.
