I revised my recent Romnesia painting, removing the 'I am Mitt' lettering from the post-it notes which are stuck on and around Mitt's head. I decided the lettering made the painting look too much like an editorial cartoon. The 'message' of the painting is more subtle ( needing to remind oneself constantly of self-identity ) and I think this is now a better painting, but I've been wrong before. I also did a bit more work to the detail of the face. I like it, but if the winning bidder on Ebay would like the lettering restored I would be happy to do so. It would still be a nice painting.
