The disjointedness of the symbols has to be softened and incorporated. There must be a decision made about the lake.  I’m approaching the deadline and there is a feeling, when I look at my painting that I’ve just pasted a bunch of symbols on to a painting, It’s time to add the final layers that will bring it all together, but it’s hard to make those brush strokes. This is the point where I can ruin all this work, or I can elevate it to a unified vision.

I am not sure which way it will go.
