Four Paintings on the Couch (Dec. 27, 2013)

Four Paintings on the Couch (Dec. 27, 2013), a photo by randubnick on Flickr.

During the week of December 23, I was painting mountain landscapes. By December 27th, I had four paintings done, and I needed to choose one of them to put into a frame and deliver to the gallery that same day. I had been partial to the red painting, but wasn't sure. It was 8:30 AM and we planned to set out for Boston around 11. So I lined up the four paintings on the couch to compare. I thought this little couch gallery was amusing, so I took this picture. Looking at the paintings together this way helped me decide, and in fact, I was surprised by my own choice.
