Getting the tone right, the hardest part. Mood crucial.

Colour, colour, colour. What looks right, what feels right. Recoloured many times.

Had the basic images in my head. But no idea as to colour scheme.

Initially, the swing was going to be metal and white. Then I thought, if Jesus was to make a swing He would make it out of wood.

I get bored easily, so it was hard to decide to paint the swing as wood rather than white metal, which did not look right. Wood representing Yeshua's nature, and workmanship; carpentry and building. The word tecton, which is described His work, meant builder, not just carpentry.

I always struggle with seeing the end when painting. So its as I paint that things happen. I do not know what colour or what effect to create, its as if each brush stroke leads to the next. As a good friend of mine would say. Just get the paint on the paper.
