Realizing I Need to Learn More.

Last couple days I have been floundering with my painting. I think mainly because I'm not letting myself slow down enough. At least for me when I paint or need to brain storm, I need a pretty big chunk of time. A couple hours by myself to really get into my work. I'm having a hard time right now trying to figure out the prospective. The paper airplane with whirlybird is throwing me off. Not only is he going to be swinging out at an angle, he is coming towards us, on the left hand side. I have a little bit of drawing skills,but not enough. I do fairly well painting from a photo and copying it. When it's all coming straight from the imagination, it takes a lot more. Doing paintings in this manner is new to me. I have been thinking that I probably need to take another drawing class this next semester. I need to refresh some skills and just basically dial in on my weaknesses. Sometime soon here, I do need to let myself become one with this piece and maybe I can figure somethings out.
