Not done

I started my latest painting yesterday, and (obviously) it isn't done yet. For some reason, the entire period between when a painting is started and when it's totally "in the bag" is kind of bothersome for me.
Right now the painting looks extremely messy and sloppy, because I just did the first layer of paint. I probably won't be at ease until the 3rd layer, when the paint finally looks smooth and creamy.
