So, when you have nothing to complain about what do you do? You just make something up… so here goes…
The paintings themselves aren’t that hard to do. I really get into the artwork but naming them is increasingly difficult. I call this The Terracotta Group named solely after some of the colours.
I suppose naming art after the colours only works sometimes because here’s the same painting in different colours. Now what do I do? They’re just colorful dancers now. What kind of title is that? So, my agony for today is giving artwork a decent title. I think this sort of agony is preferable to other types I know too well. So, I’ll wallow in this agony for a bit. If this is all I have to worry about today then I figure today will be a good day.

Thanks for the laugh.
Some people deliberately make their titles more like catalog numbers — Dancing Figures #1 and #2, or use the date, or stuff like that.
I forgot to mention of course I have the same trouble with naming tunes and albums. Sometimes I go with the plain ideas like Prelude in B minor and so on.
dancing in paint?
titles are a difficult thing. like the painting though it’s so fresh.
I hate naming things much of the time. If a name or title doesn’t come of its own accord, it’s agony for me to try to come up with one.
For me, it’s most often with academic papers, blog posts, and stories. Oh, and with adult parts who haven’t really accepted that they are DID, and would prefer to remain nameless.
I like your art quite a bit. Thanks for sharing it.
