Description
today i was on fire...woke earlier than usual and like riding a wave that desperately seeks a far shore, i raged forward all day
a counter-point to last night when i, for the first time in my adult life, nearly destroyed an entire batch of film due to a chemical error i should well have been past ever making. leaving the film in stasis until i could find a solution, i followed this by nearly destroying the re-mounting of a painting when the interaction of two different glues produced a horror of rubbery, potentially art destroying results and i made the wise decision to walk away from anything that had any importance whatsoever....
today, though creative chemistry and grace, i managed to rescue the film from oblivion...and these are the first results. basic scans, but what survived my idiotic mistake none the less...
i then sanded, sealed and gessoed a large panel for a future piece, painted 8 new works, procured information for our new years camping trip and scanned in images.
this unyielding pace leads me to believe i am avoiding some critical emotional issue...
regardless...this is javiera. she liked my work and so we made images together which i nearly destroyed by inattention to basic details...
t-max 400 processed in a manner i will never repeat again

did you start with fixer or ?
Don't be too hard on yourself... it's routine for me as well, and I can remember at least one time I almost messed it all up as well.
