Comment on Am I actually expressing myself fully by painting realistically? by Susan T. Blake

Norman Rockwell was dissed for being an “illustrator,” a “realist.” But he noticed things about the world and brought them to us, with his creative touch expressing the vision in his head, and helped us see things in a new way. With love. You do the same. If that’s not Art I don’t know what is.

Don’t stop. Please.

A true artist may spend her time in solitude but through her, the expression through her art connects with a million souls at the sight of beauty she brings to us.
In another words,
Your works made me notice details of life I never took notice in real life but through your art, I saw more life than with my own eyes. Really. I am so grateful you wrote, you share and you paint!

What’s happening here is what separates an true artist (yourself) from people who just want the artist lifestyle or association (the majority).

It’s the pursuit of mastery of the medium and the self.

History repeatedly shows us that a real artist is a person that expresses whatever they feel they need to via a medium that they have labored passionately to master in order to make themselves…better communicators.

That’s right kids. True art is timeless and ageless communication. In other words, it’s message and story never ever becomes irrelevant.

Why? Because it was told by a master in training.

Jessie looks almost exactly how I imagine Marius (Les Mis)

Of course, I’m slightly biased since I love your work

Hurray for tiny things! I’ve always loved the small things. (Although it tends to set me at odds with others when they treat the small things like they don’t matter. C’est la vie. )

Comment on The balance between art & biz: A schedule-making process by Julie

I love this! It sounds so very sane and aligned with the life you want to be living.

On the “chip away at projects” front, do you know about Turtle Steps? You break every project down into steps, and keep breaking each step down until it’s so very tiny and simple that your feeling inside is like, oh, well, of COURSE I can do THAT.

Regular turtle steps get us everywhere!

I hope you’re better then I am at keeping a schedule (routine?) that tight. I’ve tried several times to do this and failed miserably. I simply can’t force myself to do things if I’m not feeling it.
