“This might end up in crying….”

“This might end up in crying. If you’re not prepared to cry about it, I’m not sure you’re making art. And if you’re not prepared to dance in anticipation, you’re definitely not making art.”
– Seth Godin in The Icarus Deception

I did not have a lot of time this weekend to give to this painting, but I did play around with the one lemon some. Next weekend should be better…

“Art is propaganda for what really matters.”

October 26, 2014

Started something new last night. It may take a while to finish as I am working hard to prep some paintings for a local art show that I’m participating in next month. This is from a photo that I took specifically in reference to a painting of oranges that I was sure was either Gauguin or Cezanne, but of course I can’t find it now. By the time I am finished this painting, I will find and link my inspiration… In the meantime I hope you enjoy this post and the YouTube video from which I pulled my blog post title this week.
