I`m getting so sick of 'rainforest' this and 'autumn' that for titles. Maybe I could use the storm naming idea, and just call this painting 'Monique'. It`s definitely feminine.
I`m on to something with oil paints on yupo. It`s sort of like painting on glass so I`ve tinted the paper with acrylic first to give it a bit more grip and to have something to react to. I know I have something worthy when I want to keep looking at it without any urge to improve it.

"Grace Before Full Dawn"?
Or "Grace Before Dawn" (I like it better without the word "Full".)
"Rush to Rise"
"Romance with Orange"
Hi Randall,
Nice work, as always, but this comment is specifically related to your words about, "Done-ness".
I thought your description about, "...wanting to keep looking at it without the urge to change anything" was brilliant.
I'll guess lots of artists stop work on a piece using similar criteria, but it's the first time I've seen it written.
You've probably solved a difficult challenge for countless artists with this post!
Thanks, Randall and Well Done.
Sincerely,
Gary.
Lovely, name or no name.
I agree wirh Gary, I love how you describe the feeling of completion. Especially how it sneaks up on you. I don't think this necessicarily feels feminine. I like to search poetry and the Thesaurus for titles. What about Forest Epiphany?
I truely like the idea of another language as you concluded on the next more recent post. I am eager to know what language you pick for the first of the new name ones.
Lovely! How did you mount the Yupo?
I didn`t Shirley, I sold it unframed.
