An Artist's Prerogative

I have finished the first of several new paintings using a different painting style. I am painting in layers and using more graphic elements in my paintings. The plan is to do a series of about 5 or 6 paintings to try and perfect this technique. It has been fun painting in a different manner, thinking about how to compose and how to build each layer. At the moment, I think my first painting in this series is finished. The reason I say "at the moment" is that I reserve the artist's right to change his work at a later time if I so choose. In other words, I may learn something along this journey and want to go back and apply to this painting. That is an artist's prerogative.
