Sticky

It drives me crazy when a painting that I'm excited about working on is too sticky to paint. I have to wait another day or two or three until it's dry to the touch; such is the case with Rita's. I evened out the circular edge on the sign (which has been annoying me every time I've looked at it) and was able to get a few small areas taken care of, but had to be careful not to smear anything or paint over an area that hasn't completely dried. Doing so would lead to problems with cracking in the future.

But I really want to get to that big wall.
