I'm so ugly!

This is a perfect example of what I mean by the ugly stage of a painting. I usually love what is happening when I begin because the piece is just color. No marks have been added. No real decisions had been made yet. And then we get to this stage where its just ugly. This is where I know that the painting is not progressing in the right direction and it might be time to cover up a lot of the design that has been done so far. This is the hardest part. But I will figure it out. Eventually.
