Art is Life

Daydream Shivers

Day dreams... shivers.... do you ever have them when you gaze at a painting?
They don't happen often, but when they do, WOW you know you are in the presence of a monumental piece.
What I am trying to say is that the artist who has inspired this response in you truly has portrayed the beauty of the scene or the emotional response of his/her creativity through the work of art that you are viewing. It is like an unconscious reaction that has grabbed you and engaged your own emotions.
Wow...
This is something that does not happen often. But if it does take note of what you were gazing at, who the artist was and try to analyze why. It would be interesting to hear what you found out. Let me know if you care to comment.
Day dreams... shivers....
Either that or a ghost has passed your way.
Kidding!
Till next time, Happy Painting!

Kudos and Lighting

Thank you for all your great comments and congratulations on the start of this website. I am honored and thankful for you telling your friends and family about it as well.
I had to take a bit to allow the blush fire to die down in my cheeks, which in turn allowed my head to shrink and fit through the door of my office. Now that that has happened I am able to actually sit down at the computer and allow my fingers their time to roam (the keyboard that is).
What makes great art?
Well, that is the million dollar question for sure. There is sure to be a million answers to that question as well. I think it starts for all in how you 'see'. Now everyone 'see's' differently. Certain aspects of the subject tend to excite or awaken the viewers emotions and thoughts in a variety of ways. But I want to simplify even more.
What do you see? Not subject matter. It is how the light plays over objects, etc. So we see light and of course, light's opposite darkness.
So what makes great art? How you see light and shadow. How can you paint art that appeals? Ensure you have proper lighting so that you can 'see' what it is you wish to paint.
It does not matter what your medium of choice is, if you do not have proper lighting (true light), either from the sun, specialty lights, or even enough light you will not have 'great art'. Pretty basic huh? And yet it is a vital step in achieving our dreams and making them a reality.
Hope this lights your lightbulb and makes you think about how you 'see'.
Talk soon!

    As those who know me, and those of you about to find out, I love to talk; meet people; learn from others; and most importantly I LOVE TO PAINT!
    Not necessarily in that order (wink, wink)
    I also can't carry a tune, but will belt out my renditions of my favorite songs whenever the impulse strikes. Usually in a studio setting with other artists! I don't know who laughs harder, me or them. Hmm...probably them!
    Lots of Fun!
