Thanks for sharing the Diebenkorn - I like it a lot. I also understand the idea of psychopathology vs mental health = a contradiction we artists live every day? Take it easy on yourself and release the need for perfection on this one - time to move on and return to this later (if you still are not happy with it).RH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188700731713860207.post-73342691971023008172016-02-01T09:21:20.849-08:002016-02-01T09:21:20.849-08:00I have sat in this water and feel the muddy bottom...I have sat in this water and feel the muddy bottom below and the stillness above, waiting for a water snake to drift by lost in its own thoughts. You have captured it my friend.<br /><br />I too would save Buddha and Erb of course, and my sketchbook.

Sometimes you just get your rear end kic...Randall,<br /><br />Sometimes you just get your rear end kicked. I do at least. A lot. I love the painting though. It is somehow encouraging to know that it doesn't get easier. (A little perverse, but encouraging!)<br /><br />I enjoyed the look at Diebenkorn's work. I saw an exhibit a few years ago over in San Francisco. It was well worth the drive. Honestly, the guy could paint and draw. And I love looking at people's sketchbooks. It really is like looking directly at someone's thought process.<br /><br />Good luck with the reception. I hope it goes well!<br />Libby<br /><br />PS-The psych. article was good. I have never thought of myself as a creative person but maybe I am wrong on that point.<br /><br /><br /><br />Libby Fifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13532162740012986996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188700731713860207.post-35943541305147986452016-01-31T20:22:29.177-08:002016-01-31T20:22:29.177-08:00Thank you Mary, I appreciate that even if I`m not ...Thank you Mary, I appreciate that even if I`m not in full agreement yet.
