That’s the spirit!
My fellow artists, we have to do our own thing and don’t let anyone else’s opinion stop you!
As for myself, I was thinking of trying to continue my practice painting like Matisse out in plein air, which means people might see me tape my brushes onto yard sticks and stand way back to paint. Would they think I was insane? Will they think I’m trying to get attention? Will they call the cops? I don’t know. They probably already think I’m odd because I go out alone to paint.
Anyway, I never did care too much what people think, I might do it when the weather clears up.

It’s kind of dark since it’s backlit but you can see the pretty clouds. A man walking on the path took the pic and emailed it to me. I’m much more attractive in real life and the painting looks better too, just in case you were wondering.
here’s a good meme for you
I have been working on my dune paintings and making good progress but got held up by some different circumstances. I’ll post an update this week.
Meanwhile, enjoy this photo of me. hahahah

Let me compare painting to sewing. I enjoy both activities. I’ve sewed on production lines and to me that’s neither art or craft, only a job and not fun. Sometimes I sew clothes. I’m following someone else’s instructions but I still have to make a lot of creative decisions, which pattern would work best, which fabrics, for starters. When I paint I’m following the steps I learned in art school. A lot of sewing projects don’t work out and a lot of paintings don’t either.
Sewing can be frustrating, but the more skill you get by practicing the more creative you can get because you know what didn’t work before, just like painting.
It’s all just hand work. When I paint, is my mind in a special place? Yes, it’s in the zone. Sewing can also make you forget the world for a little while. Compare the brainwaves. Is there a big difference? When I paint do I suddenly get enlightened? It’s the thing about using your hands and eyes at the same time to make something. It’s not that painting is on some much higher level of the mind. They’re so close I can’t tell the difference.
Good teachers make a lot of difference. With painting or sewing. They start you on a certain path then you have to spend years working on your own.
If you have enough dexterity to sew you can paint but taking a class can help. It’s not something you’re born with. No one is born knowing how to cut and sew fabrics or how to use a sewing machine and painters have to practice their skills too.
I call myself an artist and in the past I called myself a seamstress. It’s not like I rose to a higher level of being.
As always, feel free to opine. I’m not going to fight and you can’t hurt my feelings. I like to hear what others think on this subject.

I’m not one to join a protest mob. I’d have avoided a crowd even before the pandemic but I support the protesters. The govt. ordering businesses to close because of a virus is tyranny. And ordering healthy law abiding people to self quarantine is tyranny. Do you trust the govt.? Can you tolerate your rights to be taken? I’m not afraid of “the rona.”
Just my two cents. Feel free to disagree or opine, as always.

I’m going out for a long drive today and tomorrow. My daughter’s going along with me to bring my Mom to VA from PA. Then she’s taking Mom home after xmas and I’m staying home. I did that drive alone for so many years then stopped a few years ago. Now Sarah wants to make the drive and asked me if I want to go along this year, so I’ll drive the first half of it. Traffic will be heavy. Weather ok.
Enjoy your holidays, friends! ttyl
