A porta verde - Sessão 8 / The green door - Session 8
Agora que a porta verde está pintada, aqui temos mais uma vista geral do estado das coisas, já com toda a área em granito à esquerda também terminada. Para que o trabalho fique pronto, faltam apenas as cablagens eléctricas que se atravessam pela parede, a placa toponímica, e finalmente toda a zona de pavimento imersa na sombra. É coisa para mais duas sessões...
Now that the green door is painted, here's an overview of the state of affairs, including all the granite area to the left which has also been completed. The electrical wiring, the street plate and finally all the pavement area immersed in shadow are the missing elements to get this work finished. Something for two more sessions...

Inacabados / Unfinished
Hoje decidi publicar alguns exemplos de trabalhos que ficaram pelo caminho, desde o mais antigo que terá cerca de dois anos, até ao mais recente que terá cerca de dois dias.
Por vezes, as coisas não correm como a gente quer: A meio de um trabalho, descubro que o mesmo está a afastar-se da ideia que tinha em mente, que o resultado até ali não está ao nível de qualidade que seria de esperar, ou simplesmente que a sua execução deixou de ser agradável e começa a arrastar-se penosamente ao longo de dias...
Frequentemente cometo o erro, que tenho vindo a tentar contrariar, de persistir até ao final. O resultado é um trabalho que demorou imenso, do qual não gosto, e que em nada contribui para a motivação. É por isso preferível tomar a misericordiosa decisão de interromper o processo, enviando a vítima para uma gaveta obscura, e arrepiar caminho com alegria, porque há sempre um novo esboço à espera.
Today I decided to post some unfinished works, from the oldest that may have some two years, to the most recent that may have some two days. Sometimes things don't go as we would like to: In the middle of the work, I discover that it is moving away from what I had in mind, or the result so far doesn't have the expectable quality, or simply it ceased to be enjoyable and starts do drag itself painfully for days...
Frequently I make the mistake, which I've been trying to correct, of persisting until the end. The result is a work that took too long, which I don't like at all and doesn't help the motivation. It is better to take the merciful decision of interrupting the process, send the victim to an obscure drawer, and carry on happily, because there's always a new sketch waiting...

A porta verde - Sessão 7 / The green door - Session 7
Aqui temos, já concluído, o elemento principal de todo o trabalho: A porta verde. De todas as partes até agora pintadas, esta foi a mais difícil e que requereu mais paciência, mas estou satisfeito com o resultado final.
Here we have, already concluded, the main element of this work: The green door. From all parts painted so far, this was the most difficult and the one that required more patience, but I'm happy with the final result.
