If I may, I would like to share your words with some art friends.

It's never too late to move forward with confidence and conviction.<br /><br />I have a lot of thoughts about taking up painting later on in life. It's a struggle. We go at it like baseball players at practice; we want to get better with our technical skills so our game can be better. But as you suggest, there is still something missing. It's what you wrote, to look for what "animates us emotionally" and maybe not what looks conventional or pretty or what have you. Finding that part is very difficult-harder than you would imagine. It's why I love some of the later work of Lawren Harris. He went out there a bit to try and get at what mattered to him.<br /><br />In any case, thank you again for the free advice. That's three times now! Feel like I owe a big thank you:)Libby Fifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13532162740012986996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188700731713860207.post-48370558538151305582014-12-27T12:25:46.645-08:002014-12-27T12:25:46.645-08:00Randall,
Thank you for another beautiful and helpf...Randall,<br />Thank you for another beautiful and helpful post; your online journal is a wonderful way to share with others. When I was much younger and felt my destiny was to write the great american novel, I enjoyed reading the journals and letters of accomplished authors, learning about their processes and struggles. In a similar way, I enjoy following you at this mature and confident point in your career, and appreciate your endless generosity and kind spirit.Mitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03320277970095573853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3188700731713860207.post-47393443637684394762014-12-27T08:42:39.736-08:002014-12-27T08:42:39.736-08:00A reason to come to D.C.!
