Time Lapse Painting with Music By Patti Casey

8/26/2021

Time lapse painting with music by the wonderful Patti Casey. Patti is a good friend and I often paint to her music. She is a musician who lives
in Montpelier . I think she is one of those people who can do everything well. I can't think of anything she can't do.

Mixing Colorful Grays and While Considering Temperature

8/25/2021

Yesterday on my Youtube channel I posted a video where I talked to you about the changes that have taken place here in this house. I also said I was going to dedicate myself to the painting of a clear glass with a clear liquid in it. This means thinking about inserting color as much as possible in the my gray mixes and to contemplate temperature.

What I have learned so far:
Temperature ...thinking about warm and cool is a great way to explore the same color value but to make distinctions based on the variety of choices depending on what you mix and how you decide to approach a very neutral subject. I was happily completely absorbed.

Back To The Program and a Demo

8/23/2021

I have been off line for a bit. But now I am back. We lost Henry the rescue collie . He was not healthy when we got him in January but I thought "magically" that he would live a long time. He was doing extremely well and then his kidneys crashed. There was nothing to be done and it rocked me harder than I ever thought it would.
I thought I would be a collie rescue person but I found out I can not compartmentalize my emotions and I great at "hello's" and not at "goodbyes".
So now I have faced a myth about myself I did not know.
I did not paint for a while. My spirit was just not there for it.
Luckily now it is and I am getting ready to do an online workshop in a few weeks.
What I have learned so far?
You can still discover things about yourself that you thought were false but turn out to be true and that is OK.
Do you have a myth about yourself or a magical thinking moment that was a real "ah ha"?
