Missing Camera

Oops! I have paintings to post, but have misplaced my camera. Will post as soon as it surfaces.

Work in Progress

I seem to be busy with ordinary things--getting the car inspected, etc. I am looking forward to tomorrow when I can paint.

Happy new year to you all !

Daily Bread

I did no painting yesterday...my birthday. I am now officially old as dirt. Meanwhile, a painting from my house.

Still Life with Strawberries

I'm back from my holiday journeys to see friends and family. It was a wonderful time, but I glad to be home and painting today. It's raining, so I cannot take a photo and post. The above painting is in my house.

I saw the Chinese terra cotta soldiers at the High Museum in Atlanta. If you live anywhere near I recommend you visit it. These were made around 200 BC, and clay methods are still very much the same. It is one of the most remarkable shows I've seen. I have always had a fascination with China and now know that I will probably never go there. We are, indeed, fortunate that it is now in the US.

I just finished reading Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell, also author of Blink and The Tipping Point. It deals with the complex story of success--not what you think according to Gladwell. What I found the most interesting as an artist is the 10,000 hour rule. He cites several studies that point to practice with the intention of improving as the best avenue for mastering a skill. The magic number tends to be about 10,000 hours. What do you think?
