“The Bean”
6 x 6” oil on masonite
 
I finished an involved painting tonight - and thought to myself - I'm gonna paint something happy and try something new. So I chose Chicago's Millennium Park sculpture, commonly known as The Bean . When I was there, it made me happy. The thing I did differently was to use a flat, wide brush and hold it about a foot away from the board. No nit-picking. Free strokes. Happy strokes. SOLD
