Saturday AUGUST 10
A got a chicken near by & corn tomatoes & beans at Edwards. I feeling indigestible & thunderstormish, read a while.
A to Y.C. painting on next big abstraction.
I over with lunch.
I started to paint on grasses but it too miscellaneous - too many small things seen - no simple line. so scraped it out. Started in with a tube of Talen's green to pep me up. Got start on a letter thing I think.
