Thanks so much for the crit man! I totaaalllly agree, I find it really difficult to work an extended amount of time on any one piece. There are so many interesting problems to solve at the beginning of a painting and rendering doesn't hold my interest as long. At a certain point I start to get self-conscious about the marks I'm making and I don't feel like I'm advancing the painting any further.

If anyone has any input or advice about how they got over this I'd love to hear it, I really want to extend my art attention span.
