After 4 weeks

The Professor likes his studio. The space is large, the light perfect and he has been working steadily for a month.
This was on May 8. 
The concrete floors had to be covered with rugs or matts he bought at a Feed Store. They are used in horse stalls. He hurt the ball of his foot the first week and has limped around since. Bone doctor this week to know if he should do something other than inner soles.
Jubilant Reality 24x30. 
The professor started this at school and finished it in the studio.

A Boat Trip down Buffalo Bayou
