Painting in Progress: Underwood Typewriter

I thought I'd share a photo, a glimpse into my work space. This is another painting of the old Underwood in progress. I'm tackling the keys today, a great way to ruin ones posture is to sit for 3 hours straight, hunched over moving across the canvas, inch by inch. In a few months, I'll share the completed painting once it's hanging at the gallery for the exhibition in June.

Hi! Christopher Stott,
Your painting of the Underwood typewriter looks great!...from your previous post, I thought that you were painting in a "dungeon"...just kidding! but, far from it your workspace it's light, airy and neat...Nice!

Thanks, for sharing!

Light, yes, there is plenty of light in here. It is bright in here. Neat? Well, I keep promising myself that I'll clean the place up one day. Photos can lie.

Oops!..I'am so sorry!.. I meant to say, that your studio "looks" or is "well lit" or there is plenty of (natural sun) light!...not "light" like a feather!...

Wow, great space...and so neat and organized.
So now, not only am I inspired by your brillant work, but I want to bulldoz all this clutter out of my studio.

Nice looking space. Really liked the other pieces you did with the typewriter. They are what attracted me to your work and blog, but I guess I did not realize the size of them. With the amount of detail you put in those that is very ambitious.

Thanks, Jim. About the size... it's almost impossible to really understand the dimensions of paintings by looking at them on the internet. Everything seems to be about 6" square, maximum.

Actually, I think photos of paintings on display would be the best at understanding how big or small a piece is.
