I find it helpful to do a personal "check up" every so often. Yesterday, I forced myself to plug away- updating my resume, re-writing my personal statement and generally re-evaluating my goals. To me, that is as cathartic as spring cleaning! It's a good idea to take a look at where you've been, where you're going and what you're trying to accomplish. Like opening all the windows and letting that spring air in; I'm feeling newly rejuvenated and invigorated!
I am a full time oil painter living and working the South Shore of Boston. My goal as a painter is to say as much as I can, with as few "well placed" brushstrokes as possible. My paintings are intuitive and spontaneous, meant to engage the viewer in a specific moment in time.
This blog is designed to share a quick glimpse into my process of painting. All paintings are for sale by contacting the artist. saltydogstudio@comcast.net
I know what you mean...I should probably take stock myself! Love this painting.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, Nancy, I am going to try to do it, too! And yes, can't we all 'kill' those gorgeous brushstrokes? I'm the Queen of "AUUUGHHH!"
